Time-sensitive topic models for action recognition in videos
In this paper, we postulate that temporal information is important for action recognition in videos. Keeping temporal information, videos are represented as word×time documents. We propose to use time-sensitive probabilistic topic models and we extend them for the context of supervised learning. Our time-sensitive approach is compared to both PLSA and Bag-of-Words. Our approach is shown to both capture semantics from data and yield classification performance comparable to other methods, outperforming them when the amount of training data is low.
