چکیده
Hand gestures play a significant role in Human Computer Interaction. They serve as primary interaction tools for gesture based computer control. The present work is a part of vision based hand gesture recognition system for Human Computer Interaction. We have proposed an algorithm with the fusion of skin color model and background subtraction that yields robust output in the presence of drastic illumination changes. This paper compares methodologies of various hand segmentation approaches for gesture recognition systems. This study is merely a first step towards development of a reliable efficient robust gesture recognition system with high detection rate.

Spatial Hand Segmentation Using Skin Colour and Background Subtraction
Despite advances in hand detection and hand tracking, robust hand segmentation remains a challenging task in many gesture recognition systems. Problems can be caused by a variety of factors, such as changing illumination and background clutter. We compare the most commonly used visual cues for hand segmentation, namely skin colour and background subtraction, applied both separately and combined...
متن کاملHuman Hand Gesture Recognition System using Computer Vision
In this paper, the hand gesture of a person is being recognized and being identified that which hand is raised. This paper basically differentiates between the left and the second hand of the person. The human figure is first detected in the frame and then the skin color is taken into account to recognize the hands and the face of the person. The hands and the face are differentiated on the bas...
