In this study, two novel shape descriptors are proposed to be used in human behavior understanding problem. First is optimal shape descriptor, which has high performance but works very slow due to high algorithmic complexity. Second is suboptimal shape descriptor, performance of which is very close to optimal one, but works much more faster. Optimal means using minimum data to represent maximum knowledge. Algorithms are run on Weizmann dataset and results are shown both as figure and video link. Classification was performed using 12 statistical features extracted from the data sets' human silhouettes. An accuracy rating of 92 percent was obtained by using Euclidean distance in classification.
