چکیده

We build upon a constrained, lab-based Sign Language recognition system with the goal of making it a mobile assistive technology. We examine using multiple sensors for disambiguation of noisy data to improve recognition accuracy. Our experiment compares the results of training a small gesture vocabulary using noisy vision data, accelerometer data and both data sets combined.

MAN-MACHINE INTERACTION SYSTEM FOR SUBJECT INDEPENDENT SIGN LANGUAGE RECOGNITION USING FUZZY HIDDEN MARKOV MODEL

Sign language recognition has spawned more and more interest in human–computer interaction society. The major challenge that SLR recognition faces now is developing methods that will scale well with increasing vocabulary size with a limited set of training data for the signer independent application. The automatic SLR based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) is very sensitive to gesture's shape inf...

Exploring the Mobile Phone as a Platform for a Portable, Non-Invasive, and Robust Sign Language Recognition System

This thesis explores the possibility of creating a portable, non-invasive, and robust sign language recognition system on a mobile device, capable of improving the quality of life of sign language users. A gesture recognition app was implemented for iOS in Objective-C and C++, using the OpenCV library for computer vision. This app was compared to the Thalmic Labs Myo, which has been successfull...

Applying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language

Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...

A Component-Based Vocabulary-Extensible Sign Language Gesture Recognition Framework

Sign language recognition (SLR) can provide a helpful tool for the communication between the deaf and the external world. This paper proposed a component-based vocabulary extensible SLR framework using data from surface electromyographic (sEMG) sensors, accelerometers (ACC), and gyroscopes (GYRO). In this framework, a sign word was considered to be a combination of five common sign components, ...

A Gravitational Search Algorithm-Based Single-Center of Mass Flocking Control for Tracking Single and Multiple Dynamic Targets for Parabolic Trajectories in Mobile Sensor Networks

Developing optimal flocking control procedure is an essential problem in mobile sensor networks (MSNs). Furthermore, finding the parameters such that the sensors can reach to the target in an appropriate time is an important issue. This paper offers an optimization approach based on metaheuristic methods for flocking control in MSNs to follow a target. We develop a non-differentiable optimizati...
