ABSTRACT:
The method for automatic key posture information abstraction of this invention comprises the steps of: Abstracting from a series of continuous digitized images spatial features of objects contained in said images; abstracting shape features of said objects using a method of probability calculation; detecting key posture information contained in said series of continuous images using a method of entropy calculation; removing redundant key postures; mating obtained key postures with key posture templates stored in a codebook; and encoding mated key postures.
