Abstract: In this paper, we propose a motion recognition method based on motion capture data. To recognise motion type, a generalised Isomap non-linear dimension reduction based on Radius Basis Function (RBF) networks and feature extraction is used to project original motion data into low-dimensional subspace. Then, some motion-type classifiers are learned for each human|s joint in subspace. Then, we use ensemble reinforcement learning to enhance learning results. Experimental results show that our methods are effective for 3D human motion recognition and control.

Keywords: motion control; RBF networks; feature extraction; reinforcement learning; motion capture data; motion recognition; neural networks; motion classification; human joints.
