An ECAPA-TDNN Based Network for Hand Gesture Recognition on Skeletal Data

Yirui Yin · Highlights in Science Engineering and Technology · 2023

Due to the high variety of sign languages, it is essential to present a model that could recognize the hand gesture recognition. The state-of-art model is mainly driven by convolution neural networks (known as CNN), and researches are on optimizing CNN architectures. The CNN networks are too large and require long time to train. To address these challenges, we developed a more accurate and robust ECAPA-TDNN structure for recognition. The ECAPA-TDNN is a structure of multiple one- dimensional neural networks with one-dimensional convolution, activation layers, and batch normalization. On the challenging SHREC 2017 3D Shape Retrieval Contest dataset, the ECAPA-TDNN achieved an accuracy of 92.9%, which is 2% higher than the state-of-the-art accuracy achieved by CNNs.
