In this paper 6 categories of human activities (jogging, hand waving, walking, running, and handclapping, and boxing) have been recognized with a mean average precision (mAP) of 79.33% at the frame-based and 84.4% at the image-based measurement on the HAR datasets.Extensive experiments on dataset shows that the suggested approach outperforms the current state-of-the-art in action recognition.
