This chapter covers the key aspects of sign-language recognition (SLR), starting with a brief
introduction to the motivations and requirements, followed by a précis of sign linguistics and …

This paper discusses sign language recognition using linguistic sub-units. It presents three
types of sub-units for consideration; those learnt from appearance data as well as those …

While much attention has been paid to the usability of desktop computers, mobile computers

We introduce the Gesture Watch, a mobile wireless device worn on a user's wrist that allows
hand gesture control of other devices. The Gesture Watch utilizes an array of infrared …

Gesture is a promising mobile User Interface modality that enables eyes-free interaction
without stop** or impeding movement. In this paper, we present the design …

Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that enhances a person's sensory perception by

This is an introduction to multicast routing, which is the study of methods for routing from one
source to many destinations, or from many sources to many destinations. Multicast is …

We propose a new finite mixture model based on the formalism of general Gaussian
distribution (GGD). Because it has the flexibility to adapt to the shape of the data better than …

Nearest neighbor classifiers recognize stroke gestures by computing a (dis) similarity
between a candidate gesture and a training set based on points, which may require …

This work presents the development and implementation of a unified multi-sensor human
motion capture and gesture recognition system that can distinguish between and classify six …
