Abstract: Few works on action prediction of 3D human have been reported, and most of them represent human model with triangular mesh, which is not as simple and obtainable as 3D point clouds. Therefore, this paper proposes a point cloud action sequence prediction method based on MeteorNet by using 3D point clouds to represent human model. In an action sequence, the 3D point clouds at different times are fused together for finding spatiotemporal neighborhoods of the point clouds and grouping them; Three-layer Meteor modules are superimposed in the spatiotemporal neighborhoods for aggregating information and obtaining spatiotemporal features of the point cloud sequence; thus, the point cloud coordinates of action are predicted by a three-layer fully connected network. Experimental results show that the human actions predicted by the proposed method have lower errors with real actions.
