In the field of image processing, it is more complex and challenging task to detect the Human motion in the video and recognize their actions from the video sequences. A novel approach is presented in this paper to detect the human motion and recognize their actions. By tracking the selected object over consecutive frames of a video or image sequences, the different Human actions are recognized. Initially, the background motion is subtracted from the input video stream and its binary images are constructed. Using spatiotemporal interest points, the object which needs to be monitored is selected by enclosing the required pixels within the bounding rectangle. The selected foreground pixels within the bounding rectangle are then tracked using edge tracking algorithm. The features are extracted and using these features human motion are detected. Finally, the different human actions are recognized using K-Nearest Neighbor classifier. The applications which uses this methodology where monitoring the human actions is required such as shop surveillance, city surveillance, airports surveillance and other important places where security is the prime factor. The results obtained are quite significant and are analyzed on the datasets like KTH and Weizmann dataset, which contains actions like bending, running, walking, skipping, and hand-waving.
