Abstract

In this paper, a stereoscopic video description method is proposed that indirectly incorporates scene geometry information derived from stereo disparity, through the manipulation of video interest points. This approach is flexible and able
to cooperate with any monocular low-level feature descriptor. The method is evaluated on the problem of recognizing complex human actions in natural settings, using a publicly available action recognition database of unconstrained stereoscopic 3D videos, coming from Hollywood movies. It is compared both
against competing depth-aware approaches and a state-of-the-art monocular algorithm. Experimental results denote that the proposed approach outperforms them and achieves state-of-the-art performance.
