Markov-Based Failure Prediction for Human Motion Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new method of detecting and predicting motion tracking failures with applications in human motion and gait analysis. We define a tracking failure as an event and describe its temporal characteristics using a hidden Markov model (HMM). This stochastic model is trained using previous examples of tracking failures. We derive vector observations for the HMM using the noise covariance matrices characterizing a tracked, 3-D structural model of the human body. We show a causal relationship between the conditional output probability of the HMM, as transformed using a logarithmic mapping function, and impending tracking failures. Results are illustrated on several multi-view sequences of complex human motion.

متن کاملMarkovian Delay Prediction-Based Control of Networked Systems
A new Markov-based method for real time prediction of network transmission time delays is introduced. The method considers a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural model for the transmission network, where the number of neurons in the input layer is minimized so that the required calculations are reduced and the method can be implemented in the real-time. For this purpose, the Markov process order...
متن کاملUniversal Motion Prediction
This paper investigates the motion prediction techniques used in hybrid video coding. We first present a unified interpretation of motion prediction in terms of the prediction of motion threads. It is demonstrated that most current motion prediction techniques can be regarded as linear predictors of motion threads. Based on this new interpretation of motion prediction, we discuss the optimal mo...

We present the results of using an extension of the FORM gesture dataset to predict the mid-level phenomenon of phase. We compare the results of human phase predition with automated prediction using machine-learning techniques. Specifically, we present the results of hidden-Markov model experiments using an extended version of the FORM data to predict phase labels. Additionally, we compare FORM...
