As human activity has diversification in action, interaction, and it embraces a large amount of data and powerful computational resources, it is very difficult to recognize human activities from an image. In order to solve the computational cost and vanishing gradient problem, in this work, we have proposed a revised simple convolutional neural network (CNN) model named Human Activity Recognition Network (HActivityNet) that is automatically extract and learn features and recognize activities in a rapid, precise and consistent manner. To solve the problem of imbalanced positive and negative data, we have created two datasets, one is HARDataset1 dataset which is created by extracted image frames from KTH dataset, and another one is HARDataset2 dataset prepared from activity video frames performed by us. The comprehensive experiment shows that our model performs better with respect to the present state of the art models. The proposed model attains an accuracy of 99.5% on HARDatase1 and almost 100% on HARDataset2 dataset. The proposed model also performed well on real data.enHuman activity recognition (HAR)convolutional neural network (CNN)KTH datasetComputer visionVanishing gradient problemArticle
