Hand segmentation using learning-based prediction and verification for hand sign recognition
Y. Cui, Juyang Weng · 1996
This paper presents a prediction-and-verification segmentation scheme wing attention images from multiple fixations. A major advantage of this scheme is that it can handle a large number of different deformable objects presented in complex backgrounds. The scheme is also relatively efficient since the segmentation is guided by the past knowledge through a prediction-and-verification scheme. The system has been tested to segment hands in the sequences of intensity images, where each sequence represents a hand sign. The experimental result showed a 95% correct segmentation rate with a 3% false rejection rate.
