Will Gesture-Recognition Technology Point the Way?

Adaptive Models for the Recognition of Human Gesture

Tomorrow's ubiquitous computing environments will go beyond the keyboard, mouse and monitor paradigm of interaction and will require the automatic interpretation of human motion using a variety of sensors including video cameras. I present several techniques for human motion recognition that are inspired by observations on human gesture, the class of communicative human movement. Typically, ges...

Hand Gesture Recognition from RGB-D Data using 2D and 3D Convolutional Neural Networks: a comparative study

Despite considerable enhances in recognizing hand gestures from still images, there are still many challenges in the classification of hand gestures in videos. The latter comes with more challenges, including higher computational complexity and arduous task of representing temporal features. Hand movement dynamics, represented by temporal features, have to be extracted by analyzing the total fr...

Gesture Recognition Using the Linear Combination of Membership Degrees of Observations

3D Hand Motion Evaluation Using HMM

Gesture and motion recognition are needed for a variety of applications. The use of human hand motions as a natural interface tool has motivated researchers to conduct research in the modeling, analysis and recognition of various hand movements. In particular, human-computer intelligent interaction has been a focus of research in vision-based gesture recognition. In this work, we introduce a 3-...

Gesture Based Interaction NUI: An Overview

Touch, face, voice-recognition and movement sensors – all are part of an emerging field of computing often called natural user interface, or NUI. Interacting with technology in these humanistic ways is no longer limited to high-tech secret agents. Gesture recognition is the process by which gestures formed by a user are made known to the system. In completely immersive VR environments, the keyb...
