Abstract

In today's world, daily life increasingly depends on vision-based advanced technologies, which enhance the reliability and convenience of human lifestyles. Among these technologies, vision-based Human Activity Recognition (HAR) stands out as a comprehensive and challenging field of study, with broad exploration and practical applications. HAR systems are designed to identify diverse human actions under varying environmental conditions.Vision-based activity recognition plays a crucial role in a wide range of applications, including user interface design, robot learning, security surveillance, healthcare, video searching, abnormal activity detection, and human-computer interaction. This study focuses on recognizing various human activities in real-world settings, highlighting the importance of consistency and credibility in the results.To achieve this, data was collected from multiple sources and processed using three distinct models—Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), VGG-16, and ResNet50—to identify the most effective approach for activity recognition. Among these, a specific architectural CNN model was further evaluated for its ability to capture human activity features in specific video sequences. The training, validation, and testing phases utilized a comprehensive dataset comprising 56,690 images. Remarkably, the proposed system achieved an impressive accuracy of 96.23% after 30 epoch running and low validation loss illustrate its effectively recognition each feature.
