Abstract
A method and system detects actions of an object in a scene by first acquiring a video of the scene as a sequence of images, wherein each image includes pixels, wherein the video is partitioned into chunks. The object in the video is tracked. For each object and each chunk of the video, trajectories of the pixels within a bounding box located over the object are tracked, and cropped trajectories and cropped images for one or more images in the chunk are produced using the bounding box. Then, the cropped trajectories and cropped images are passed to a recurrent neural network (RNN) that outputs a relative score for each action of interest.
