In this paper, we study how different skeleton extraction methods affect the performance of action recognition. As shown in previous work skeleton information can be exploited for action recognition. Nevertheless, skeleton detection problem is already hard and very often it is difficult to obtain reliable skeleton information from videos. In this paper , we compare two skeleton detection methods: the depth-map based method used with Kinect camera and RGB based method that uses Deep Convolutional Neural Networks. In order to balance the pros and cons of mentioned skeleton detection methods w.r.t. action recognition task, we propose a fusion of classifiers trained based on each skeleton detection method. Such fusion lead to performance improvement. We validate our approach on CAD-60 and MSRDailyActiv-ity3D, achieving state-of-the-art results.
