INTRODUCTION STEPS OF GESTURE RECOGNITION TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES SPEECH WITH GESTURE APPLICATIONS
Slide 3
Gestures are expressive, meaningful body motions i.e., physical movements of the fingers, hands, arms, head, face, or body with the intent to convey information or interact with the environment.
Slide 4
Mood and emotion are expressed by body language. Facial expressions. Tone of voice. Allows computers to interact with human beings in a more natural way. Allows control without having to touch the device.
Slide 5
Replace mouse and keyboard. Pointing gestures. Navigate in a virtual environment. Pick up and manipulate virtual objects. Interact with a 3D world. No physical contact with computer. Communicate at a distance.

Here the index finger is recognized and when extended, becomes a drawing tool. Here, text is entered by pointing at the character desired Here the index fingers and thumbs of the two hands are recognized and are used to control the shape of the object being defined

We need to search thousands of images. How to do this efficiently? We need to use a coarse-to-finesearch strategy.
Hidden Markov Model ( HMM ) --- time sequence of images modeling HMM1 (Hello) HMM2 (Good) HMM3(Bad) HMM4 (House) P(f |HMM1) f P(f |HMM2)
Slide 19
Given previous frames we can predict what will happen next Speeds up search. occlusions -

In fluent dialogue signs are modified by preceding and following signs. intermediate forms A B
Slide 21
Single pose Standard head-and-shoulders view with uniform background Easy to find face within image
Slide 22
Alignment Faces in the training set must be aligned with each other to remove the effects of translation, scale, rotation etc. It is easy to find the position of the eyes and mouth and then shift and resize images so that are aligned with each other
Slide 23
Once the images have been aligned you can simply search for the member of the training set which is nearest to the test image. There are a number of measures of distance including Euclidean distance, and the cross- correlation.
Slide 24
PCA reduces the number of dimensions and so the memory requirement is much reduced. The search time is also reduced
Slide 25
The same person may sometimes appear differently due to Beards, moustaches Glasses, Makeup These have to be represented by different ellipsoids.
Slide 26
There are six types of facial expression We could use PCA on the eyes and mouth so we could have eigeneyes and eigenmouths Anger Fear Disgust Happy Sad Surprise
Slide 27
Heads must now be aligned in 3D world space. Classes now form trajectories in feature space. It becomes difficult to recognise faces because the variation due to pose is greater than the variation between people.
Slide 28
We can fit a model directly to the face image Model consists of a mesh which is matched to facial features such as the eyes, nose, mouth and edges of the face. We use PCA to describe the parameters of the model rather than the pixels.
Slide 29
Voice and gesture compliment each other and form a powerful interface that either a modality alone. Speech and gesture make a more interactive interface. Combining gesture and voice increase recognition accuracy.
Slide 30
Within the media room user can use gesture,speech,eye movements or combination of all three. Example: One application allowed user to manage color coded ship against a map of a carribean. A user just need to point the location and need to say create a large blue tank. A blue tank will appear on the location. Media room
Slide 31
Sign language recognition: gesture recognition software can transcribe the symbols represented through sign language into text. Control through facial gestures: Controlling a computer through facial gestures is a useful application of gesture recognition for users who may not physically be able to use a mouse or keyboard. Immersive game technology: Gestures can be used to control interactions within video games to try and make the game player's experience more interactive or immersive.
Slide 32
A person playing game. Computer is responding as per user instruction. A girl is instructing the computer from her body movements.
Slide 33
Virtual controllers: For systems where the act of finding or acquiring a physical controller could require too much time, gestures can be used as an alternative control mechanism. Affective computing: In affective computing, gesture recognition is used in the process of identifying emotional expression through computer systems. Remote control: Through the use of gesture recognition, remote control with the wave of a hand of various devices is possible. The signal must not only indicate the desired response, but also which device to be controlled.
