Dynamic Hand Gesture Recognition

Dynamic hand gesture recognition is one of the most significant tools for human–computer interaction. In order to improve the accuracy of the dynamic hand gesture recognition, in this paper, a two-layer Bidirectional Recurrent Neural Network for the recognition of dynamic hand gestures from a Leap Motion Controller (LMC) is proposed. In addition, based on LMC, an efficient way to capture the dynamic hand gestures is identified. Dynamic hand gestures are represented by sets of feature vectors from the LMC. The proposed system has been tested on the American Sign Language (ASL) datasets with 360 samples and 480 samples, and the Handicraft-Gesture dataset, respectively. On the ASL dataset with 360 samples, the system achieves accuracies of 100% and 96.3% on the training and testing sets. On the ASL dataset with 480 samples, the system achieves accuracies of 100% and 95.2%. On the Handicraft-Gesture dataset, the system achieves accuracies of 100% and 96.7%. In addition, 5-fold, 10-fold, and Leave-One-Out cross-validation are performed on these datasets. The accuracies are 93.33%, 94.1%, and 98.33% (360 samples), 93.75%, 93.5%, and 98.13% (480 samples), and 88.66%, 90%, and 92% on ASL and Handicraft-Gesture datasets, respectively. The developed system demonstrates similar or better performance compared to other approaches in the literature.

Connectionist Temporal Classification

Automatic classification of dynamic hand gesture is challenging due to the large diversity in a different class of gesture, Low resolution, and it is performed by finger. Due to a number of challenges many researchers focus on this area. Recently deep neural network can be used for implicit feature extraction and Soft Max layer is used for classification. In this paper, we propose a method based on a two-dimensional convolutional neural network that performs detection and classification of hand gesture simultaneously from multimodal Red, Green, Blue, Depth (RGBD) and Optical flow Data and passes this feature to Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) recurrent network for frame-to-frame probability generation with Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) network for loss calculation. We have calculated an optical flow from Red, Green, Blue (RGB) data for getting proper motion information present in the video. CTC model is used to efficiently evaluate all possible alignment of hand gesture via dynamic programming and check consistency via frame-to-frame for the visual similarity of hand gesture in the unsegmented input stream. CTC network finds the most probable sequence of a frame for a class of gesture. The frame with the highest probability value is selected from the CTC network by max decoding. This entire CTC network is trained end-to-end with calculating CTC loss for recognition of the gesture. We have used challenging Vision for Intelligent Vehicles and Applications (VIVA) dataset for dynamic hand gesture recognition captured with RGB and Depth data. On this VIVA dataset, our proposed hand gesture recognition technique outperforms competing state-of-the-art algorithms and gets an accuracy of 86%

Generalization Ability

In recent years, surface electromyography (sEMG)-based human–computer interaction has been developed to improve the quality of life for people. Gesture recognition based on the instantaneous values of sEMG has the advantages of accurate prediction and low latency. However, the low generalization ability of the hand gesture recognition method limits its application to new subjects and new hand gestures, and brings a heavy training burden. For this reason, based on a convolutional neural network, a transfer learning (TL) strategy for instantaneous gesture recognition is proposed to improve the generalization performance of the target network. CapgMyo and NinaPro DB1 are used to evaluate the validity of our proposed strategy. Compared with the non-transfer learning (non-TL) strategy, our proposed strategy improves the average accuracy of new subject and new gesture recognition by 18.7% and 8.74%, respectively, when up to three repeated gestures are employed. The TL strategy reduces the training time by a factor of three. Experiments verify the transferability of spatial features and the validity of the proposed strategy in improving the recognition accuracy of new subjects and new gestures, and reducing the training burden. The proposed TL strategy provides an effective way of improving the generalization ability of the gesture recognition system.
