Abstract
In this paper, we propose a hand gesture recognizer using restricted coulomb energy (RCE) neural network, and present hardware implementation results for real-time learning and recognition. Since RCE-NN has a flexible network architecture and real-time learning process with low complexity, it is suitable for hand recognition applications. The 3D number dataset was created using an FPGA-based test platform and the designed hand gesture recognizer showed 98.8% recognition accuracy for the 3D number dataset. The proposed hand gesture recognizer is implemented in Intel-Altera cyclone IV FPGA and confirmed that it can be implemented with 26,702 logic elements and 258Kbit memory. In addition, real-time learning and recognition verification were performed at an operating frequency of 70MHz.
