Abstract
Group action recognition in soccer videos is a challenging problem due to the difficulties of group action representation and camera motion estimation. This paper presents a novel approach for recognizing group action with a moving camera. In our approach, ego-motion is estimated by the Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi feature sets on successive frames. The optical flow is then computed on compensated frames. Due to the inaccurate ego-motion estimation, the optical flow can not reflect accurate motion of objects. In this paper, we propose a new motion descriptor which treats the optical flow as spatial patterns and extracts accurate global motion from the noisy optical flow. The latent-dynamic conditional random field model is employed to recognize group action. Experimental results show that our approach is promising.
