Abstract

The emerging cognitive vision paradigm is concerned with vision systems that evaluate, gather and integrate con- textual knowledge for visual analysis. In reasoning about events and structures, cognitive vision systems should rely on multiple computations in order to perform robustly even in noisy domains. Action recognition in an unconstrained office environment thus provides an excellent testbed for re- search on cognitive computer vision. In this contribution, we present a system that consists of several computational modules for object and action recognition. It applies atten- tion mechanisms, visual learning and contextual as well as probabilistic reasoning to fuse individual results and verify their consistency. Database technologies are used for infor- mation storage and an XML based communication frame- work integrates all modules into a consistent architecture.
