Abstract: Human  action understanding plays a critical role in many applications, such as video  surveillance and human computer interaction. In the past few years, there has  been a lot of progress in action and gesture recognition with conventional 2D  video cameras. Effective techniques have been developed to address many  challenging issues in real world environments such as dynamic and cluttered  background as well as occlusions. More recently, the availability of commodity  depth cameras has brought a new level of excitement to this field. Rapid  progress has been made that addresses new technical issues in action recognition  with 3D depth cameras. In this talk, I will introduce our recent work for human  action understanding using both regular and depth cameras and provide brief  discussions on some of the recently developed techniques. The topics cover the  action and gesture analysis using regular and depth cameras, as well as action  analysis in user-generated consumer videos, such as movies and Youtube  videos.
