View invariant human action recognition using histograms of 3D joints
In this paper, we present a novel approach for human action recognition with histograms of 3D joint locations (HOJ3D) as a compact representation of postures. We extract the 3D sk...

Approximate Inference in Additive Factorial HMMs with Application to Energy Disaggregation
This paper considers additive factorial hidden Markov models, an extension to HMMs where the state factors into multiple independent chains, and the output is an additive function...
