The\u00a0current paper deals with visual processing in dynamic scenes\u00a0and presents an integrated vision system that combines a\u00a0number of different cues (such as color, depth, motion) to track\u00a0and recognize human actions in challenging environments. The\u00a0overall system comprises of a number of vision modules for\u00a0human identification and tracking, extraction of pose-related\u00a0information from body and face, identification of a specific\u00a0set of communicative gestures (e.g. \u201cwaving, pointing\u201d) as well\u00a0as tracking of objects towards identification of manipulative\u00a0gestures that act on objects in the environment (e.g. \u201cgrab\u00a0glass\u201d, \u201craise bottle\u201d). Experimental results from a bartending\u00a0scenario as well a comparative assessment of a subset of\u00a0modules validate the effectiveness of the proposed system.<\/p>\n<table align=\"center\">\n<tbody align=\"center\">\n<tr align=\"center\">\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"50%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0445.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-321 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0445-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0445-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0445.jpeg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"50%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0197.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-320 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0197-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0197-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/tracker_0197.jpeg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr align=\"center\">\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"50%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-317 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b1.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"50%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-318 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mpateraki.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/b2.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Pateraki M., Sigalas M., Chliveros G., Trahanias P., 2013.
