Low-Rank Transfer Human Motion Segmentation.

Human motion segmentation has great potential in real world applications. Conventional segmentation approaches cluster data with no guidance from prior knowledge, which could easily cause unpredictable segmentation output and decrease the performance. To this end, we seek to improve the humanmotion segmentation performance by fully utilizing pre-existing well-labeled source data. Specifically, we design a new transfer subspace clustering method for motion segmentation with a weighted rank constraint. Specifically, our proposed model obtains representations of both source and target sequences by mitigating their distribution divergence, which allows for more effective knowledge transfer to the target. To guide new representation learning, we designed a novel sequential graph to preserve temporal information residing in both the source and target. Furthermore, a weighted low-rank constraint is added to enforce the graph regularizer and uncover clustering structures within data. Experiments are evaluated on four human motion databases, which prove the enhanced performance and increased stability of our model compared to state-of-the-art baselines.
