Human activity recognition: review, taxonomy and open challenges

Nowadays, Human Activity Recognition (HAR) is being widely used in a variety of domains, and vision and sensor-based data enable cutting-edge technologies to detect, recognize, and monitor human activities. Several reviews and surveys on HAR have already been published, but due to the constantly gro...
