A Compensation Algorithm for The Position of the User Hands based on the Moving Mean-Shift ($CAPUH_{MMS}$) in Human Robot Interface (HRI) System running the Kinect sensor is proposed in order to improve the performance of the gesture recognition is proposed in this paper. The average error improvement ratio of the trajectories ($AEIR_{TJ}$) in left-right movements of hands for the $CAPUH_{MMS}$ is compared with other compensation algorithms such as the Compensation Algorithm based on the Compensation Algorithm based on the Kalman Filter ($CA_{KF}$) and the Compensation Algorithm based on Least-Squares Method ($CA_{LSM}$) by the developed realtime performance simulator. As a result, the $AEIR_{TJ}$ in up-down movements of hands of the $CAPUH_{MMS}$ is measured as 19.35%, it is higher value compared with that of the $CA_{KF}$ and the $CA_{LSM}$ as 13.88% and 16.68%, respectively.

This paper proposes a method of tracking the hand region and detecting the fingertip using only depth images. In order to eliminate the influence of lighting conditions and obtain information quickly and stably, this paper proposes a tracking method that relies only on depth information, as well as a method of using region growing to identify errors that can occur during the tracking process and a method of detecting the fingertip that can be applied for the recognition of various gestures. First, the closest point of approach is identified through the process of transferring the center point in order to locate the tracking point, and the region is grown from that point to detect the hand region and boundary line. Next, the ratio of the invalid boundary, obtained by means of region growing, is used to calculate the validity of the tracking region and thereby judge whether the tracking is normal. If tracking is normal, the contour line is extracted from the detected hand region and the curvature and RANSAC and Convex-Hull are used to detect the fingertip. Lastly, quantitative and qualitative analyses are performed to verify the performance in various situations and prove the efficiency of the proposed algorithm for tracking and detecting the fingertip.

Electronic signatures, QR codes, and bar codes are used in payment systems used in real life. Research has begun on the payment system implemented in the VR environment. This paper proposes a VR electronic sign system that uses hand gesture recognition to implement an existing payment system in a VR environment. In a VR system, you can not hit the keyboard or touch the mouse. There can be several ways to configure a payment system with a VR controller. Electronic signage using hand gesture recognition is one of them, and hand gesture recognition can be classified by the Warping Methods, Statistical Methods, and Template Matching methods. In this paper, the payment system was configured in VR using the $p algorithm belonging to the Template Matching method. To create a VR environment, we implemented a paypal system where actual payment is made using Unity3D and Vive equipment.

This paper deals with the dynamic hand gesture recognition based on computer vision using neural networks. This paper proposes a global search method and a local search method to recognize the hand gesture. The global search recognizes a hand among the hand candidates through the entire image search, and the local search recognizes and tracks only the hand through the block search. Dynamic hand gesture recognition method is based on the skin-color and shape analysis with the invariant moment and direction information. Starting point and ending point of the dynamic hand gesture are obtained from hand shape. Experiments have been conducted for hand extraction, hand recognition and dynamic hand gesture recognition. Experimental results show the validity of the proposed method.

본 논문에서는 컬러 영상 기반에서 배경에 강인한 피부 영역 검출 기법을 제안하고 손 인식기법을 활용한 응용프로그램을 제안한다. 코드북 모델[1]을 이용하여 배경/전경을 분리하고, 분리된 전경에서 피부색정보를 이용하여 관심영역을 도출한다. 피부 영역을 검출하기 위한 단계에서는 YCbCr, HSV, LUV 색상 모델의 혼합하여 피부색 후보 영역에 대한 임계구간을 통해 강인한 피부 영역을 분할한다. 분할된 영역을 관심영역으로 설정하고 Kalman filter를 이용하여 영역을 추적한다. 결과적으로 복잡하고 고정된 배경에서 조명에 강인한 피부 영역 분할 및 추적이 가능하며 이를 응용한 사용자 인터페이스로 사용될 수 있다.

This paper presents a intuitive, simple and easy smart home TV remote control system using the hand gesture recognition. Hand candidate regions are detected by cascading policy of the part of human anatomy on the disparity map image, Exact hand region is extracted by the graph-cuts algorithm using the skin color information. Hand postures are represented by shape features which are extracted by a simple shape extraction method. We use the forward spotting accumulative HMMs for a smart home TV remote control system. Experimental results show that the proposed system has a good recognition rate of 97.33 % for TV remote control in real-time.

최근 들어 손 제스처를 인간-기계 인터페이스에 활용하는 연구가 많아지고 있다. 그 중에서 수화 인식은 청각장애인과 일반인 사이의 원활한 의사 소통을 하게 해 주는 인터페이스로서 중요성이 날로 더해가고 있다. 하지만 기존의 수화 인식 연구는 사용자 개개인의 수화 동작의 차이를 고려하지 않고 다수 사용자를 위한 모델을 사용하기 때문에 사용자에 따라 인식률이 낮아지게 된다. 이러한 점을 보완하기 위해 본 논문에서는 개개인의 수화 동작 특성을 반영하여 시스템이 사용자에게 적응해 가는 과정을 다루고자 한다. 특히 점진적인 사용자 적응에 있어서 가장 문제가 되는 것은 어떻게 비관측된 상태(unobserved state)의 파라미터를 수정할 것인가 하는 것이다. 이를 위해서 본 논문에서는 동작 유사도와 적응 추이에 의한 추정을 통해 비관측된 상태의 모델 파라미터를 수정한다. 실제 청각 장애인들로부터 획득한 데이터베이스를 사용하여 제안한 방법이 기존 방법에 비해 더욱 빠르게 사용자의 특성을 시스템에 반영하고 인식률을 향상시킨다는 것을 실험을 통해 보인다.

This paper presents a system which recognizes dynamic hand gestures for virtual reality(VR). A dynamic hand gesture is a method of communication for a computer and human who uses gestures, especially both hands and fingers. Since the human hands and fingers are not the same in physical dimension, the same form of a gestrue produced by two persons with their hands may not have the same numerical values which are obtained through electronic sensors. In this paper, we apply a fuzzy min-max neural network and feature analysis method using fuzzy logic for on-line pattern recognition.

Human-hand gestures have been used a means of communication among people for a long time, being interpreted as streams of tokens for a language. The signed language is a method of communication for hearing impaired person. Articulated gestures and postures of hands and fingers are commonly used for the signed language. This paper presents a system which recognizes the korean sign language (KSL) and translates the recognition results into a normal korean text and sound. A pair of data-gloves are used a sthe sensing device for detecting motions of hands and fingers. In this paper, we propose a dynamic gesture recognition mehtod by employing a fuzzy feature analysis method for efficient classification of hand motions, and applying a fuzzy min-max neural network to on-line pattern recognition.

This is a study on controlling a drone (DJI Mavic Air) with simple hand gesture using Leap Motion controller. Four component involve are MacBook, Leap Motion controller, Android device, and DJI Mavic Air. All of this component are connected through USB, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi technology. The studies main purpose are to show that by controlling a drone through Leap Motion, drone amateur user can easily learn how to control a drone, and because of longer drone control range can be archived things such as search and rescue mission will be possible.
