Deep learning approaches, platforms, datasets for behaviorbased recognition: a survey

10.11591/ijeecs.v38.i3.pp1880-1895
Yunusa Mohammed Jeddah , Aisha Hassan Abdallah Hashim , Othman Omran Khalifa
Video surveillance is an extensively used tool due to the high rate of atypical behavior and many cameras that enable video capture and storage. Unfortunately, most of these cameras are operator dependent for stored content analysis. This limitation necessitates the provision of an automatic behavior identification system. This behavior identification can be achieved using unsupervised (generative) computer vision methods. Deep learning makes it possible to model human behavior regardless of where they could be. We attempt to classify current research work to report the ongoing trends in human behavior recognition using deep learning algorithms. This paper reviews various aspects, like the ones associated with machine learning and deep learning models, human activity recognition (HAR), deep learning frameworks/tools, abnormal behavior datasets, and a variety of other current trends in the field of automatic learning. All these are to give the researcher a sense of direction in this area.

The current study aims to determine if emotional empathy predicts subjective well-being among undergraduate and graduate students. The current quantitative investigation is based on the survey research design. Participants were students from Al Ain University’s Abu Dhabi and Al Ain campuses (n=307). Data were gathered using the multidimensional emotional empathy scale (MDEES) and the subjective well-being scale (WeBs). The study found that increasing emotional empathy resulted in enhanced subjective well-being among undergraduate and graduate students. The findings also revealed that an increase in the emotional attention component of emotional empathy is associated with a decrease in subjective well-being. The suffering component of emotional empathy makes the greatest contribution to predicting subjective well-being among undergraduate and graduate students. The component of feeling for others ranks second in terms of capacity to predict subjective well-being among undergraduate students. Positive sharing is the second most effective predictor of subjective well-being among graduate students. We discovered that there is a need to increase college students’ subjective well-being, which has a major impact on their overall well-being.
