In recent years, more and more datasets dedicated to human action and activity recognition have been created. The use of these datasets allows us to compare different recognition systems with the same input data. The survey introduced in this paper tries to cover the lack of a complete description of the most important public datasets for video-based human activity and action recognition and to guide researchers in the election of the most suitable dataset for benchmarking their algorithms.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessA Survey of Video Datasets for Human Action and Activity RecognitionartículoHuman action recognitionHuman activity recognitionDatabaseDatasetReviewSurvey
