This paper proposes a hybrid approach for recognizing human activities from trajectories.First,an improved hidden Markov model(HMM) parameter learning algorithm,HMM-PSO,is proposed,which achieves a better balance between the global and local exploitation by the nonlinear update strategy and repulsion operation.Then,the event probability sequence(EPS) which consists of a series of events is computed to describe the unique characteristic of human activities.The analysis on EPS indicates that it is robust to the changes in viewing direction and contributes to improving the recognition rate.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed approach is evaluated by data experiments on current popular datasets.

This paper proposes a hybrid approach for recognizing human activities from trajectories. First, an improved hidden Markov model （HMM） parameter learning algorithm, HMM-PSO, is proposed, which achieves a better balance between the global and local exploitation by the nonlinear update strategy and repulsion operation. Then, the event probability sequence （EPS） which consists of a series of events is computed to describe the unique characteristic of human activities. The anatysis on EPS indicates that it is robust to the changes in viewing direction and contributes to improving the recognition rate. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is evaluated by data experiments on current popular datasets.
