This paper proposes a skeleton-based human walking motion analysis system which consists of three major phases. In the first phase, it extracts the human body skeleton from the background and then obtains the body signatures. In the second phase, it analyzes the training sequences to generate statistical models. In the third phase, it uses the trained models to recognize the input human motion ...

ground vibrations during an earthquake can severely damage structures and equipments housed in them. many factors including earthquake magnitude, distance from the fault or epicenter, duration of strong shaking, soil condition of the site, and the frequency content of the motion define the properties of ground motion and its amplification. a deep understanding of the effects of these factors on...
