A four dukkha state-space model for hand tracking

State–space model for light-based tracking of marine animals

A coherent model is presented to estimate the most probable track of geographic positions directly from a series of light measurements. The model estimates two geographic positions per day, without reducing the daily light data to two threshold crossing times, its covariance structure is designed to handle high correlations due to for instance local weather conditions, and it can estimate the y...

Hand Tracking Using A Quadric Surface Model

Within this paper a technique for model-based 3D hand tracking is presented. A hand model is built from a set of truncated quadrics, approximating the anatomy of a real hand with few parameters. Given that the projection of a quadric onto the image plane is a conic, the contours can be generated efficiently. These model contours are used as shape templates to evaluate possible matches in the cu...

3D Model-Based Hand Tracking

Hand tracking has great potential as a tool for better human-computer interaction. Areas of application include navigation in virtual environments, gesture recognition and motion capture for film animation. This report presents a new method for 3D hand tracking. It uses a 3D model built from truncated quadrics which approximates the anatomy of a real human hand. This approach allows for the use...

Incorporating a Tracking Signal into State Space Models for

It is a common practice to complement a forecasting method such as simple exponential smoothing with a monitoring scheme to detect those situations where forecasts have failed to adapt to structural change. It will be suggested in this paper that the equations for simple exponential smoothing can be augmented by a common monitoring statistic to provide a method that automatically adapts to stru...
