Cellular sets in the Hilbert cube are the intersection of nested sequences of normal
cubes. One way of getting cellular maps on the Hilbert cube is by decomposing the Hilbert
cube into cellular sets and using a quotient map. By using a cellular decomposition of the
Hilbert cube, an example...
This dissertation addresses the problem of recognizing human activities in videos. Our focus is on activities with stochastic structure, where the activities are characterized by variable space-time arrangements of actions, and conducted by a variable number of actors. These activities occur frequently in sports and surveillance videos. They may appear...
Recognizing human actions in videos is a long-standing problem in computer vision with a wide range of applications including video surveillance, content retrieval, and sports analysis. This thesis focuses on addressing efficiency and robustness of video classification in unconstrained real-world settings. The thesis work can be broadly divided into four...
