- Abstract:
-
Considering the difficulty in effectively achieving complete static gesture segmentations from skin-like background regions, this paper proposes an integrated static gesture segmentation model based on an improved centroid watershed algorithm (ICWA). The ICWA algorithm significantly reduces the interference of image gradient on gesture segmentations such that it can completely extract skin regions from images. Moreover, a novel method is designed and implemented by integrating principal component analysis (PCA) dimension reduction and convexity detection algorithms, which can accurately extract the cutting line of the wrist according to convex points. Preliminary experiments of automatic gesture recognitions based on convolutional neural network (CNN) were carried out on a benchmark database. The experimental results show that the proposed model can achieve a recognition rate of 97.85% on average for nine different static gestures.
