A hybrid ART-RBF Network Architecture for Viewpoint Invariant Human Activity Recognition

There is growing interest in the problem of human activity recognition, motivated by its countless promising applications in many domains. Despite much progress, most researchers have narrowed the problem towards fixed camera viewpoint owing to inherent difficulty to train their systems across all p...
