In this presentation we consider how 3D sensors can be used to encode and predict complex actions using hidden Markov models (HMM). Of particular interest is the development of a type of stochastic differential geometry of component action trajectories, their decomposition into screws and the degrees to which HMMs can encode such actions for both recognition and prediction. In addition, we consider some tests for evaluating the usefulness of HMMs in terms of the properties of their parameters and just how each component of HMMs contributes to predicting optimal state sequences.
