چکیده

Different head movements can help us not only understand accurately whether the speaker in question is in favor of or against the current topic but also recognize human expressions better, i.e. distinguishing similar expressions such as smile and scorn. Since the movements of the feature point -nostrils on the face and the movements of the head are almost the same, tracing the feature point with Lucas-Kanade(LK) algorithm we can find out the pattern of the head movements. We can train GentleBoost classifiers use the difference of coordinates of nostril in an image or a frame to identify the movement of the head, include nodding, shaking, bowing and turning aside. A number of tests have been conducted and the results have proved the accuracy, reliability and efficiency of the method of discussed in the paper.

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...

Human Computer Interaction Using Vision-Based Hand Gesture Recognition

With the rapid emergence of 3D applications and virtual environments in computer systems; the need for a new type of interaction device arises. This is because the traditional devices such as mouse, keyboard, and joystick become inefficient and cumbersome within these virtual environments. In other words, evolution of user interfaces shapes the change in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). In...

Head gesture recognition for hands-free control of an intelligent wheelchair

Purpose – This paper presents a novel hands-free control system for intelligent wheelchairs (IWs) based on visual recognition of head gestures. Design/methodology/approach – A robust head gesture-based interface (HGI), is designed for head gesture recognition of the RoboChair user. The recognised gestures are used to generate motion control commands to the low-level DSP motion controller so tha...
