Shape and motion are two most distinct cues observed from human actions. Traditionally, K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) classifier is used to compute crisp votes from multiple cues separately. The votes are then combined using linear weighting scheme. Usually, the weights are determined in a brute-force or trial-and-error manner. In this study, we propose a new classification framework based on sum-rule fusion of fuzzy K NN classifiers. Fuzzy K-NN classifier is capable of producing soft votes, also known as fuzzy membership values. Based on Bayes theorem, we show that the fuzzy membership values produced by the classifiers can be combined using sum-rule. In our experiment, the proposed framework consistently outperforms the conventional counterpart (K-NN with majority voting) for both Weizmann and KTH datasets. The improvement may attribute to the ability of the proposed framework to handle data …
