Action recognition has been studied in computer vision field for years. We present an effective approach to recognize actions using a dimension reduction method, which is applied as a crucial step to reduce the dimensionality of feature descriptors after extracting features. We propose to use sparse matrix and randomized kd-tree to modify it and then propose modified Local Fisher Discriminant Analysis (mLFDA) method which greatly reduces the required memory and accelerate the standard Local Fisher Discriminant Analysis. For feature encoding, we propose a useful encoding method called mix encoding which combines Fisher vector encoding and locality-constrained linear coding to get the final video representations. In order to add more meaningful features to the process of action recognition, the convolutional neural network is utilized and combined with mix encoding to produce the deep network feature. Experimental results show that our algorithm is a competitive method on KTH dataset, HMDB51 dataset and UCF101 dataset when combining all these methods.

A goal of this paper is doing fine grained recognition of breed of animal from pet images. Research about fine grained recognition from images is continuously developing, but it is not for animal object recognition because they have polymorphism. This paper proposes method of higher animal object recognition using Grab-cut algorithm for object segmentation and Fisher Vector for image encoding.

This paper proposes a traffic sign recognition method in real road environments. The video stream in driving environments has two different characteristics compared to a general object video stream. First, the number of traffic sign types is limited and their shapes are mostly simple. Second, the camera cannot take clear pictures in the road scenes since there are many illumination changes and weather conditions are continuously changing. In this paper, we improve a modified census transform(MCT) to extract features effectively from the road scenes that have many illumination changes. The extracted features are collected by histograms and are transformed by the dense descriptors into very high dimensional vectors. Then, the high dimensional descriptors are encoded into a low dimensional feature vector by Fisher-vector coding and Gaussian Mixture Model. The proposed method shows illumination invariant detection and recognition, and the performance is sufficient to detect and recognize traffic signs in real-time with high accuracy.

The study of the fine grained classification of images continues to develop, but the study of object recognition for animals with polymorphic properties is proceeding slowly. Using only pet images corresponding to dogs and cats, this paper aims to compare methods using image processing and methods using deep learning among methods of classifying species of animals, which are fine grained classifications. In this paper, Grab-cut algorithm is used for object segmentation by method using image processing, and method using Fisher Vector for image encoding is proposed. Other methods used deep learning, which has achieved good results in various fields through machine learning, and among them, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which showed outstanding performance in image recognition, and Tensorflow, an open-source-based deep learning framework provided by Google. For each method proposed, 37 kinds of pet images, a total of 7,390 pages, were tested to verify and compare their effects.
