Human Movement Analysis Based on Explicit Motion Models

Within the field of computer vision the automatic interpretation of human movements is one of the most challenging tasks. A central problem in analyzing such movements is due to the fact that the human body consists of body parts linked to each other at joints which allows different movements of the parts. Therefore, the human body generally has to be treated as a nonrigid or more precisely as an articulated body. In addition, for general camera positions always some of the body parts are occluded. Although occlusions can provide important cues in a recognition task, the automatic interpretation is more difficult. Another problem that has to be dealt with is the clothing which can have a large influence on the appearence of a person (wide or tight trousers, different jackets, etc.). Clothing can also cause complex illumination phenomena that, in addition, change during movement (compare with efforts in the field of computer graphics to simulate cloth objects, e.g., [83]).
