Abstract

We are interested in the challenging scientific pursuit of how tocharacterize human activities in formatl meeting situations bytracking their positions from a computer vision system. We present ahuman activity recognition system that works within the framework ofCAMEO (the Camera Assisted Meeting Event Observer) a vision systemdesigned to operate in real-time and in uncalibrated environments.The activity classifier models human activity with a Dynamic BayesianNetwork and characterizes actions using an implementation of theViterbi algorithm modified for real-time operation through the use ofa fixed-sized backtracking window. Experimental results of theclassifier operating on tracked person data are presented. Ananalysis of the tradeoffs of choosing different window sizes is alsoincluded.
