Being a natural way of human interaction, it is an area where many researchers are working on, with the goal of making human computer interaction (HCI) easier and natural, without the need for any extra devices In this paper, a solution is proposed, the Gesture Learning Module Architecture (GeLMA), that allows the definition in a simple way of a set of commands that can be based on static and dynamic gestures and that can be easily integrated and configured to be used in a number of applications. It is easy to train and use, and since it is mainly built with open source libraries it is also an inexpensive one. Experiments carried out showed that the system was able to achieve an accuracy of 99.2% in terms of hand posture recognition and an average accuracy of 93,72% in terms of dynamic gesture recognition. To validate the proposed framework, two systems were implemented. The first one is an online system able to help a robotic soccer game referee judge a game in real time. The second one is an online system able to interpret the Portuguese Sign Language.

The system is based on low cost platforms and has a user friendly human computer interface. This system will provide better integration and coordination between the health care providers involved, improving the quality of the services. This experiment is being funded in the framework of the EC.Project-A 2007-EPIC. Quality indicators, agreed in the "European concensus conference of quality indicators for perinatal care", organized in conjunction with OBSQID project (AIM.2125) were integrated in the system. Data collection has started and the outcome will be used to validate the indicators on a transeuropean basis under the framework of the OBSQID Project.

Hand gesture recognition detects the hand pose and converts it to the corresponding alphabet or sentence. In past years it received great attention from society because of its application. It uses machine learning algorithms. Hand gesture recognition is a great application of human computer interaction. An emerging research field that is based on human centered computing aims to understand human gestures and integrate users and their social context with computer systems. One of the unique and challenging applications in this framework is to collect information about human dynamic gestures.

Research paper thumbnail of A comparison of machine learning algorithms applied to hand gesture recognition

Proceedings of the 7th Iberian Conference on Information Systems and Technologies (CISTI), 2012

Hand gesture recognition for human computer interaction is an area of active research in computer... more Hand gesture recognition for human computer interaction is an area of active research in computer vision and machine learning. The primary goal of gesture recognition research is to create a system, which can identify specific human gestures and use them to convey information or for device control. This paper presents a comparative study of four classification algorithms for static hand gesture classification using two different hand features data sets. The approach used consists in identifying hand pixels in each frame, extract features and use those features to recognize a specific hand pose. The results obtained proved that the ANN had a very good performance and that the feature selection and data preparation is an important phase in the all process, when using low-resolution images like the ones obtained with the camera in the current work.
