چکیده

This paper is focused on wrist localization which is an important step in recognizing hand gestures. While there are many methods for detecting hand feature points as well as for estimating the hand pose, the majority of them assume that the palm region is given and ignore the wrist detection step. However, despite it is a required operation if the gesture recognition is supposed to be automatic, wrist localization has not been given much attention in the literature. Here, we propose a fast, yet effective method for wrist localization and we present the evaluation procedure based on our set of 899 hand images with ground-truth data. To the best of our knowledge, such a quantitative analysis of this problem has not been published so far.

Generation of Human Body Models

The goal of the research presented in this thesis is to design an integrated system for the automatic acquisition of a human body model, using input images from mutually orthogonal views. The model consists of two sets of free-form surface patches: the torso and its arms. We determine a neck joint on the torso and six joint positions on the arms (i.e., one location for each shoulder, elbow and ...

Dual Window Pattern Recognition Classifier for Improved Partial-Hand Prosthesis Control

Although partial-hand amputees largely retain the ability to use their wrist, it is difficult to preserve wrist motion while using a myoelectric partial-hand prosthesis without severely impacting control performance. Electromyogram (EMG) pattern recognition is a well-studied control method; however, EMG from wrist motion can obscure myoelectric finger control signals. Thus, to accommodate wrist...

Distance Dependent Localization Approach in Oil Reservoir History Matching: A Comparative Study

To perform any economic management of a petroleum reservoir in real time, a predictable and/or updateable model of reservoir along with uncertainty estimation ability is required. One relatively recent method is a sequential Monte Carlo implementation of the Kalman filter: the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF). The EnKF not only estimate uncertain parameters but also provide a recursive estimat...
