Abstract

Human action recognition is concerned with analysing, understanding and synthesizing kinematic and kinetic data. Data-driven computer vision solutions have advanced the progress in the field of action recognition while it would not be possible without large and publicly available datasets. While there are numerous datasets available for adult action recognition, child-centered action recognition efforts are still scarce. This paper presents a dataset that consists of video recordings of 200 children of different age and gender groups performing seven actions (boxing, waving, clapping, running, jogging, walking towards the camera, and walking from side to side). Two camera perspectives are provided, with a top view and a frontal view in RGB format. The dataset provides an opportunity for kinematic analysis of children motion while it also aims to bridge the performance gap between activity recognition systems for adults and children.
