Activity recognition

Activity recognition aims to recognize the actions and goals of one or more agents from a series of observations on the agents' actions and the environmental conditions. Since the 1980s, this research field has captured the attention of several computer science communities due to its strength in providing personalized support for many different applications and its connection to many different fields of study such as medicine, human-computer interaction, or sociology. Due to its multifaceted nature, different fields may refer to activity recognition as plan recognition, goal recognition, intent recognition, behavior recognition, location estimation and location-based services. Sensor-based activity recognition integrates the emerging area of sensor networks with novel data mining and machine learning techniques to model a wide range of human activities. Mobile devices (e.g. smart phones) provide sufficient sensor data and calculation power to enable physical activity recognition to provide an estimation of the energy consumption during everyday life. Sensor-based activity recognition researchers believe that by empowering ubiquitous computers and sensors to monitor the behavior of agents (under consent), these computers will be better suited to act on our behalf. Visual sensors that incorporate color and depth information, such as the Kinect, allow more accurate automatic action recognition and fuse many emerging applications such as interactive education and smart environments. Multiple views of visual sensor enables the development of machine learning for automatic view invariant action recognition. More advanced sensors used in 3D motion capture systems allow highly accurate automatic recognition, in the expenses of more complicated hardware system setup. Sensor-based activity recognition is a challenging task due to the inherent noisy nature of the input. Thus, statistical modeling has been the main thrust in this direction in layers, where the recognition at several intermediate levels is conducted and connected.

OH-Grasp: A one-shot human-centric robotic grasping framework for human–robot collaboration in Industry 5.0

The advancement of Industry 5.0 has positioned human–robot collaboration (HRC) as a critical component of smart manufacturing, requiring robots to work seamlessly alongside humans in dynamic, unstructured environments. However, several challenges remain, including the heavy reliance on object-specific data for training dynamic perception models, the reliance on manually prepared CAD models for 6D pose estimation, and the lack of interaction semantics in grasp planning. To this end, a one-shot human-centric

Multi-modal action understanding: Datasets, benchmarks and models

Action understanding is a fundamental problem in artificial intelligence, as intelligent systems must infer purposeful behavior from observations that are often temporally structured and incomplete. Traditionally, this problem has been addressed within the domain of computer vision; however, multi-modal observations provide richer and more informative signals. In real-world scenarios, actions cannot be reliably recognized from visual appearance alone. Instead, effective action understanding requires integra

Diagnostic features predicted by deep learning improve human object recognition in simulated prosthetic vision

Objective: Cortical visual prostheses aim to partially restore vision by electrically stimulating V1. Yet, their effectiveness is constrained by the limited number of simultaneously elicitable phosphenes. Identifying sparse but informative visual features for object recognition is therefore crucial to enable functional prosthetic vision. In this study, we aim to target diagnostic features for object recognition. Approach: We combined a deep learning pipeline with bioplausible phosphene simulation to op

Réseau neuronal convolutif

En apprentissage automatique, un réseau de neurones convolutifs ou réseau de neurones à convolution (en anglais CNN ou ConvNet pour convolutional neural networks) est un type de réseau de neurones artificiels acycliques (feed-forward), dans lequel le motif de connexion entre les neurones est inspiré par le cortex visuel des animaux. Les neurones de cette région du cerveau sont arrangés de sorte qu'ils correspondent à des régions qui se chevauchent lors du pavage du champ visuel.

Détection d'objet

En vision par ordinateur on désigne par détection d'objet (ou classification d'objet) une méthode permettant de détecter la présence d'une instance (reconnaissance d'objet) ou d'une classe d'objets dans une . Une attention particulière est portée à la détection de visage et la détection de personne. Ces méthodes font souvent appel à l'apprentissage supervisé et ont des applications dans de multiples domaines, tels la ou la vidéo surveillance.

Visual spatial attention

Visual spatial attention is a form of visual attention that involves directing attention to a location in space. Similar to its temporal counterpart visual temporal attention, these attention modules have been widely implemented in video analytics in computer vision to provide enhanced performance and human interpretable explanation of deep learning models. Spatial attention allows humans to selectively process visual information through prioritization of an area within the visual field.
