A Motion Descriptor Based on Statistics of Optical Flow Orientations for Action Classification in Video-Surveillance - Multimedia and Signal Processing - page 274

A great advantage of the presented approach is that it can be used in sequences
captured with a mobile camera. Future work includes evaluation on more complex
scenarios. We also plan to adapt this method to perform on line action recognition
system, by coupling it with an algorithm able to segment the video in space time

boxes containing coherent motion.
