Classification of behavior patterns with trajectory analysis used for event site
Hirokazu Madokoro, Kenya Honma, Kazuhito Sato · 2012
This paper presents a method for classification and recognition of behavior patterns based on interest from human trajectories at an event site. Our method creates models using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for each human trajectory quantized using One-Dimensional Self-Organizing Maps (1D-SOMs). Subsequently, we apply Two-Dimensional SOMs (2D-SOMs) for unsupervised classification of behavior patterns from features according to the distance between models. Furthermore, we use a Unified distance Matrix (U-Matrix) for visualizing category boundaries based on the Euclidean distance between weights of 2D-SOMs. Our method extracts typical behavior patterns and specific behavior patterns based on interest as ascertained using questionnaires. Then our method visualize relations between these patterns. We evaluated our method based on Cross Validation (CV) using only the trajectories of typical behavior patterns. The recognition accuracy improved 9.6% over that of earlier models. We regard our method as useful to estimate interest from behavior patterns at an event site.
