Human action recognition is used in many applications such as video surveillance, human computer interaction, assistive living, and gaming. Many papers have appeared in the literature showing that the fusion of vision and inertial sensing improves recognition accuracies compared to the situations when each sensing modality is used individually. This paper provides a survey of the papers in which vision and inertial sensing are used simultaneously within a fusion framework in order to perform human action recognition. The surveyed papers are categorized in terms of fusion approaches, features, classifiers, as well as multimodality datasets considered. Challenges as well as possible future directions are also stated for deploying the fusion of these two sensing modalities under realistic conditions.

One of the major reasons for misclassification of multiplex actions during action recognition is the unavailability of complementary features that provide the semantic information about the actions. In different domains these features are present wit h different scales and intensities. In existing literature, features are extracted independently in different domains, but the benefits from fusing these multidomain features are not realized. To address this challenge and to extract complete set of complementary information, in this paper, we propose a novel multidomain multimodal fusion framework that extracts complementary and distinct features from different domains of the input modality. We transform input inertial data into signal images, and then make the input modality multidomain and multimodal by transforming spatial domain information into frequency and time-spectrum domain using Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and Gabor wavelet transform (GWT) respectively. Features in different domains are extracted by Convolutional Neural networks (CNNs) and then fused by Canonical Correlation based Fusion (CCF) for improving the accuracy of human action recognition. Experimental results on three inertial datasets show the superiority of the proposed method when compared to the state-of-the-art.

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are successful deep learning models in the field of computer vision. To get the maximum advantage of CNN model for Human Action Recognition (HAR) using inertial sensor data, in this paper, we use 4 types of spatia l domain methods for transforming inertial sensor data to activity images, which are then utilized in a novel fusion framework. These four types of activity images are Signal Images (SI), Gramian Angular Field (GAF) Images, Markov Transition Field (MTF) Images and Recurrence Plot (RP) Images. Furthermore, for creating a multimodal fusion framework and to exploit activity image, we made each type of activity images multimodal by convolving with two spatial domain filters : Prewitt filter and High-boost filter. Resnet-18, a CNN model, is used to learn deep features from multi-modalities. Learned features are extracted from the last pooling layer of each ReNet and then fused by canonical correlation based fusion (CCF) for improving the accuracy of human action recognition. These highly informative features are served as input to a multiclass Support Vector Machine (SVM). Experimental results on three publicly available inertial datasets show the superiority of the proposed method over the current state-of-the-art.

Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) provides leverage to extract and fuse features from all layers of its architecture. However, extracting and fusing intermediate features from different layers of CNN structure is still uninvestigated for Human Actio n Recognition (HAR) using depth and inertial sensors. To get maximum benefit of accessing all the CNNs layers, in this paper, we propose novel Multistage Gated Average Fusion (MGAF) network which extracts and fuses features from all layers of CNN using our novel and computationally efficient Gated Average Fusion (GAF) network, a decisive integral element of MGAF. At the input of the proposed MGAF, we transform the depth and inertial sensor data into depth images called sequential front view images (SFI) and signal images (SI) respectively. These SFI are formed from the front view information generated by depth data. CNN is employed to extract feature maps from both input modalities. GAF network fuses the extracted features effectively while preserving the dimensionality of fused feature as well. The proposed MGAF network has structural extensibility and can be unfolded to more than two modalities. Experiments on three publicly available multimodal HAR datasets demonstrate that the proposed MGAF outperforms the previous state of the art fusion methods for depth-inertial HAR in terms of recognition accuracy while being computationally much more efficient. We increase the accuracy by an average of 1.5 percent while reducing the computational cost by approximately 50 percent over the previous state of the art.
Distal facial Electromyography (EMG) can be used to detect smiles and frowns with reasonable accuracy. It capitalizes on volume conduction to detect relevant muscle activity, even when the electrodes are not placed directly on the source muscle. The main advantage of this method is to prevent occlusion and obstruction of the facial expression production, whilst allowing EMG measurements. However, measuring EMG distally entails that the exact source of the facial movement is unknown. We propose a novel method to estimate specific Facial Action Units (AUs) from distal facial EMG and Computer Vision (CV). This method is based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA), Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NNMF), and sorting of the resulting components to determine which is the most likely to correspond to each CV-labeled action unit (AU). Performance on the detection of AU06 (Orbicularis Oculi) and AU12 (Zygomaticus Major) was estimated by calculating the agreement with Human Coders. The results of our proposed algorithm showed an accuracy of 81% and a Cohens Kappa of 0.49 for AU6; and accuracy of 82% and a Cohens Kappa of 0.53 for AU12. This demonstrates the potential of distal EMG to detect individual facial movements. Using this multimodal method, several AU synergies were identified. We quantified the co-occurrence and timing of AU6 and AU12 in posed and spontaneous smiles using the human-coded labels, and for comparison, using the continuous CV-labels. The co-occurrence analysis was also performed on the EMG-based labels to uncover the relationship between muscle synergies and the kinematics of visible facial movement.

In this report, our approach to tackling the task of ActivityNet 2018 Kinetics-600 challenge is described in detail. Though spatial-temporal modelling methods, which adopt either such end-to-end framework as I3D cite{i3d} or two-stage frameworks (i.e ., CNN+RNN), have been proposed in existing state-of-the-arts for this task, video modelling is far from being well solved. In this challenge, we propose spatial-temporal network (StNet) for better joint spatial-temporal modelling and comprehensively video understanding. Besides, given that multi-modal information is contained in video source, we manage to integrate both early-fusion and later-fusion strategy of multi-modal information via our proposed improved temporal Xception network (iTXN) for video understanding. Our StNet RGB single model achieves 78.99% top-1 precision in the Kinetics-600 validation set and that of our improved temporal Xception network which integrates RGB, flow and audio modalities is up to 82.35%. After model ensemble, we achieve top-1 precision as high as 85.0% on the validation set and rank No.1 among all submissions.
