The paper addresses the question how and to what extent metric learning can be beneficial for reducing the false alarm rate in radar-based hand gesture recognition systems. To this end, we evaluate different metric learning approaches for out-of-distribution or unknown motion detection. We found that metric learning can help to significantly increase the out-of-distribution capabilities of the network. We further investigated what conditions must be met for metric learning to work well, and found that the composition of the data set for known gestures has a large influence on the out-of-distribution detection rate.
