模拟视皮层信息加工反馈机制的人体动作识别研究

Due to the wide application of human action recognition in many fields, such as anomaly detection and autonomous vehicles, it becomes one of the research focuses. In recent years, although many algorithms and methods have been developed, there are still many scientific problems to be solved.. Therefore, this project will model visual feedback mechanism of information processing of both visual cortical areas V1 and MT in the dorsal stream on the basis of previous research, develop a computational model of spatiotemporal information processing with feedforward and feedback connections. Firstly, based on center surround inhibition and facilitation caused by lateral connections (feedback connections) of neurons within a area, we study the operating functions of surround inhibition and facilitation (two opposite effects), and explore method of their mutual iterative operations and a decision function for equilibrium, and discuss convergence conditions. Secondly, based on the short feedback connection theory between two visual areas, we will focus on the feedback mapping method from MT to V1, and study on the relationship of feedback connections between the neurons in different areas, and discuss the strategies of feedback signals generating and processing. Finally, we further analyze the influence of the different properties of neurons in visual cortical areas on feature extraction from video,and explore new representation and recognition methods of human action. On this basis, we will establish a complete system for human action recognition. By testing on general videos and analysis of its performance, we will verify the effectiveness of new theories and new methods. Through the research of this project, it promotes the development of artificial intelligence and computer vision technology.
