Surgical Gesture Segmentation and Recognition

Accelerometer Based Real-Time Gesture Recognition

Gesture is a natural expression form for humans, but its recognition is a similarly hard problem as speech recognition. In this paper, I present a real-time hand gesture recognition system, which identifies relevant parts in the continous sensor data stream, and classifies them to the most probable gesture. Instead of the usual button-based segmentation, I have created an automatic segmentation...

Gesture Segmentation Using an Adaptive Threshold Algorithm

Hand gesture segmentation is a key step for gesture recognition. Based on the construction of a new color space of skin model, a new dynamic-thresholding segmentation approach named Adaptive Threshold Segmentation Algorithm (ATSA) was further developed and segmentation effect evaluation was conducted. Some images of hand gesture were processed by using ATSA and the Fixed Threshold Segmentation ...

Large-scale Continuous Gesture Recognition Using Convolutional Neutral Networks

• General method description:This paper addresses the problem of continuous gesture recognition with convolutional neutral networks (ConvNets) using depth maps sequences. Unlike the common isolated recognition scenario, the gesture boundaries are here unknown, and one has to solve two problems: segmentation and recognition. For segmentation, we first obtained the begin and end frames of each ge...

Gesture Recognition Using the Linear Combination of Membership Degrees of Observations

Face Recognition Using YCbCr and CIElab Skin Color Segmentation Methods:A Review

Skin Color segmentation plays an important role in various applications such as face recognition, gesture recognition, human computer interaction etc. Face recognition is of main concern in skin color segmentation. There are various color models used for skin color segmentation (YCbCr, HSV and CIELAB) but appropriate method should be used for skin color segmentation. In real time the main probl...
