View-based hand segmentation and hand-sequence recognition with complex backgrounds

Yuntao Cui, John Juyang Weng · 1996

In this paper, we presents a three-stage framework to analyze time-varying image sequences. The focus of this paper is the second stage: segmentation. We propose a prediction-and-verification segmentation scheme which efficiently utilizes the attention images from the multiple fixations. The experimental results show 95% correct segmentation rate with 3% false rejection rate of 805 testing images. The recognition of hand sign based on the segmentation results has shown that the system has achieved a good performance for this very difficult vision task.
