Abstract

Any kind of action is done by an agent which can be a human, animal, object, etc. So far most of the exploration done in the field of action recognition targets the actions performed by the agents and not the agents themselves. But, one agent cannot perform an action in the same way as another. In this paper, we addressed this action recognition problem between multiple agents using the Actor-Action Dataset. This study focuses on two scenarios: individual-class mapping and grouped-class mapping. We applied two strategies to model these cases: non-transfer approach and transfer-learning approach. It is observed that transfer learning techniques along with image augmentation outperforms the models without transfer learning. The results show that our approaches provide an average accuracy of 92% on individual-class mapping, 87% on grouped-class mapping.
