Description
Summary:A Petri net based framework is proposed for automatic high level video event description, recognition and reasoning purposes. In comparison with the existing approaches reported in the literature, our work is characterized with a number of novel features: (i) the high level video event modeling and recognition based on Petri net are fully automatic, which are not only capable of covering single video events but also multiple ones without limit; (ii) more variations of event paths can be found and modeled using the proposed algorithms; (iii) the recognition results are more accurate based on automatic built high level event models. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the existing benchmark in terms of recognition precision and recall. Additional advantages can be achieved such that hidden variations of events hardly identified by humans can also be recognized.
