The inclusion of Labanotation in this approach will allow the analysis of human motion similarity taking time and space into consideration. Table 3.3 - Results comparison between Bribiesca's work and our implementation Contributions: In this Chapter, we provided a compared the results obtained when performing the analysis of human motion between a well-known global alignment algorithm (Needleman-Wunsch), and our 3D ChainCode implementation. Needleman-Wunsh algorithm alters the chain code representation, so an experiment where 3D ChainCode is used with different step sizes was performed. This experiment shown the importance of removing the lack of movement when performing the analysis of human motion: limbs that are almost steady contribute to the value of human motion similarity obtained during the analysis. It is worth to mention that our 3D ChainCode implementation is not an exact implementation of Bribiesca’s work, due to the time spent when performing the analysis of similarity between 3D curves.
