There is a necessity for the communication between intelligent robots and human beings because of wide spread use of them. Gesture recognition is currently being studied in regards to better conversing. On the basis of previous research, however, the gesture recognition algorithms appear to require not only complicated algorisms but also separate training process for high recognition rates. This study suggests a gesture recognition algorithm based on computer vision system, which is relatively simple and more efficient in recognizing various human gestures. After tracing the hand gesture using a marker, direction changes of the gesture trajectory were analyzed to determine the simple gesture code that has minimal information to recognize. A map is developed to recognize the gestures that can be expressed with different gesture codes. Through the use of numerical and geometrical trajectory, the advantages and disadvantages of the suggested algorithm was determined.

In this paper a new method for head gesture recognition is proposed. A the first stage, face image data are transformed into low dimensional vectors by principal component analysis (PCA), which utilizes the high correlation between face pose images. The a self organization map(SM) is trained by the transformed face vectors, in such a that the nodes at similar locations respond to similar poses. A sequence of poses which comprises each model gesture goes through PCA and SOM, and the result is stored in the database. At the recognition stage any sequence of frames goes through the PCA and SOM, and the result is compared with the model gesture stored in the database. To improve robustness of classification, probabilistic relaxation labeling(PRL) is used, which utilizes the contextural information imbedded in the adjacent poses.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics of single and double finger gestures related on the web browser and to extract the appropriate finger gestures. Background: As electronic equipment emphasizes miniaturization for improving portability various interfaces are being developed as input devices. Electronic devices are made smaller, the gesture recognition technology using the touch-based interface is favored for easy editing. In addition, user focus primarily on the simplicity of intuitive interfaces which propels further research of gesture based interfaces. In particular, the fingers in these intuitive interfaces are simple and fast which are users friendly. Recently, the single and double finger gestures are becoming more popular so more applications for these gestures are being developed. However, systems and software that employ such finger gesture lack consistency in addition to having unclear standard and guideline development. Method: In order to learn the application of these gestures, we performed the sketch map method which happens to be a method for memory elicitation. In addition, we used the MIMA(Meaning in Mediated Action) method to evaluate gesture interface. Results: This study created appropriate gestures for intuitive judgment. We conducted a usability test which consisted of single and double finger gestures. The results showed that double finger gestures had less performance time faster than single finger gestures. Single finger gestures are a wide satisfaction difference between similar type and difference type. That is, single finger gestures can judge intuitively in a similar type but it is difficult to associate functions in difference type. Conclusion: This study was found that double finger gesture was effective to associate functions for web navigations. Especially, this double finger gesture could be effective on associating complex forms such as curve shaped gestures. Application: This study aimed to facilitate the design products which utilized finger and hand gestures.

Various web browsers offer mouse gesture functions because they are convenient input methods. Mouse gestures enable users to move to the previous page or tab without clicking its relevant icon or menu of the web browser. To maximize the efficiency of mouse gestures, they should be designed to match users' mental models. Mental models of human beings are used to make accurate predictions and reactions when certain information has been recognized by humans. This means providing users with appropriate information about mental models will lead to fast understanding and response. A cognitive response test was performed in order to evaluate whether the mouse gestures easily associate with their respective functional meanings or not. After extracting mouse gestures which needed improvement, those were redesigned to reduce cognitive load via sketch maps. The methods presented in this study will be of help for evaluating and designing mouse gestures.

본 연구는 구조광 기반의 깊이 에지를 이용하여 조명의 변화와 복잡한 배경에 상관없이 손 제스처의 외곽선 영상을 안정적으로 획득하였고, 제스처 영상을 표현하기 위하여 Curvature Scale Space(CSS) map을 이용하였다. 기존의 CSS map은 외곽선 영상의 깊은 굴곡과 완만한 굴곡을 잘 구분하지 못하는 문제점이 있었으나, 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 분석하고, 이를 개선하기 위해서 각도 좌표를 이용한 CSS map 생성 방법을 제안하였다. 실험을 통해서 제안한 방법이 기존의 CSS map보다 우수한 인식 성능이 있음을 보였다.

Most previous studies on A Gesture Life focused on illuminating the role and significance of Kkutaeh, the Korean comfort woman, whom Hata runs across at a military camp in the Burmese jungle. For instance, Carroll Hamilton argues that the return of Kkutaeh as a traumatic subject disrupts Hata's nationalist narrative, causing the protagonist's eventual failure at national enfranchisement. However, this paper focuses on Hata's relationship with Bedley Run, the sleepy suburban white town, in which the protagonist settles down right after immigration to the US. The racial/racist nature of Bedley Run has not received due critical attention, although a few studies on the novel saw Hata's gestures as a survival tactic deployed against the hostile environment of his new host society. This paper, resorting to Pierre Macherey's thesis on symptomatic reading, exposes what Hata, the narrator/protagonist, hides from his readers concerning his status in his muchbeloved town; and it also explores the subversive significance of Hata's ethnic memories. The aim of this study is, after all, to map both the subversive possibilities and the limitations of Hata's immigrant narrative as a bildungsroman.

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.

본 논문에서는 원격작업용 제스처 명령의 인식을 위해 컴퓨터 시각 센서와 HMM을 이용한 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 스테레오 정합을 이용한 자동 손영역의 추출은 원격작업용 제스처 추적의 자동 초기 영역 설정을 위해 제안하였다. 이는 좌, 우 두 카메라의 시각치를 이용하였으며, 손의 상대적인 거리정보를 이용하게 된다. 손영역의 추적은 일반적인 흑백 영상에서도 배경이나 잡음에 구애받지 않도록 에지값의 양의 시간차(PDOE : positive difference of edges) 영상이 사용되었으며, 제스처 명령 모델로는 실제 원자력 발전소 내 원격작업용으로 정의된 K/K(KNU/KAERI) 제스처 명령을 이용하였다. 이산 HMM을 이용한 복합 제스처 인식모델은 전명령어(pre-oeders)와 기본 명령여(basic-orders), 후명령어(post-orders)의 세 부분에 대한 각각의 명령 모델로 구성되며, 각 명령 모델의 조합과 연동에 의해서 복합적인 명령의 인식을 수행하도옥 하였다. 최종 제스처 인식 결과는 2개 이상의 명령이 복합된 연속명령에 대해 97% 이상의 안정된 인식율을 나타내었다.

상호작용이 가능한 컴퓨팅 환경에서 사람과 컴퓨터 사이의 자연스러운 정보 교환을 위해 동작 인식과 관련한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 기존의 2차원 특징값을 이용하는 인식 알고리즘은 특징값 추출과 인식 속도는 빠르지만, 정확한 인식을 위해서 많은 환경적인 제약이 따른다. 또한 2.5차원 특징값을 이용하는 알고리즘은 2차원 특징값에 비해 높은 인식률을 제공하지만 물체의 회전 변화에 취약하고, 3차원 특징값을 이용하는 인식 알고리즘은 특징값 추출을 위해 3차원 물체를 재구성하는 선행 과정이 필요하기 때문에 인식 속도가 느리다. 본 논문은 3차원 물체 재구성 단계와 특징값 추출 단계를 통합하여 실시간으로 3차원 정보를 가지는 특징값 추출 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 기존의 GPU 기반 비주얼 헐 생성 방법의 세부 과정 중에서 동작 인식에 필요한 데이타 생성 부분만을 수행하여 임의의 시점에서 3차원 물체에 대한 3종류의 프로젝션 맵을 생성하고, 각각의 프로젝션 맵에 대한 후-모멘트(Hu-moment)를 계산한다. 실험에서 우리는 기존의 방법들과 단계별 수행 시간을 비교하고, 생성된 후-모멘트에 대한 혼동 행렬(confusion matrix)을 계산함으로써 제안하는 방법이 실시간 동작 인식 환경에 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
