The present experiment examined the effects of sex and handedness on the perception of brief intervals up to 20 s in duration. In order to obtain participants with sufficiently high scores on a scale of handedness, we screened 1,276 people; the process yielded 16 men and 16 women eligible for testing. In an empty production procedure, each person estimated 4 intervals of 1, 3, 7, and 20 s, resp...

In this paper, we present our research on left hand gesture acquisition and analysis in guitar performances. The main goal of our research is the study of expressiveness. Here, we focus on a detection model for the left hand fingering based on gesture information. We use a capacitive sensor to capture fingering positions and we look for a prototypical description of the most common fingering po...

BACKGROUND Polydactyly is a congenital anomaly with a wide range of manifestations that occurs in many forms, ranging from varying degrees of mere splitting to completely duplicated thumb. When duplication occurs alone, it is usually unilateral and sporadic. CASE PRESENTATION In this case report we describe an otherwise healthy 19-year-old woman of Tibetan heritage with isolated left hand pre...

Wearable cameras allow people to record their daily activities from a user-centered (First Person Vision) perspective. Due to their favorable location, wearable cameras frequently capture the hands of the user, and may thus represent a promising user-machine interaction tool for different applications. Existent First Person Vision methods handle hand segmentation as a background-foreground prob...
