Currently, three-dimensional convolutional neural networks (3DCNNs) are a popular approach in the field of human activity recognition. However, due to the variety of methods used for human activity recognition, we propose a new deep-learning model in this paper. The main objective of our work is to optimize the traditional 3DCNN and propose a new model that combines 3DCNN with Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory (ConvLSTM) layers. Our experimental results, which were obtained using the LoDVP Abnormal Activities dataset, UCF50 dataset, and MOD20 dataset, demonstrate the superiority of the 3DCNN + ConvLSTM combination for recognizing human activities. Furthermore, our proposed model is well-suited for real-time human activity recognition applications and can be further enhanced by incorporating additional sensor data. To provide a comprehensive comparison of our proposed 3DCNN + ConvLSTM architecture, we compared our experimental results on these datasets. We achieved a precision of 89.12% when using the LoDVP Abnormal Activities dataset. Meanwhile, the precision we obtained using the modified UCF50 dataset (UCF50mini) and MOD20 dataset was 83.89% and 87.76%, respectively. Overall, our work demonstrates that the combination of 3DCNN and ConvLSTM layers can improve the accuracy of human activity recognition tasks, and our proposed model shows promise for real-time applications.
