Hand gesture recognition is viewed as a significant field of exploration in computer vision
with assorted applications in the human–computer communication (HCI) community. The …

As computers become more pervasive in society, facilitating natural human–computer
interaction (HCI) will have a positive impact on their use. Hence, there has been growing …

Skin detection plays an important role in a wide range of image processing applications
ranging from face detection, face tracking, gesture analysis, content-based image retrieval …

Hand detection is a key step in the pre-processing stage of many computer vision tasks
because human hands are involved in the activity. Some examples of such tasks are hand …

By using an onboard camera, it is possible to detect the free road surface ahead of the ego-
vehicle. Road detection is of high relevance for autonomous driving, road departure …

We address the task of pixel-level hand detection in the context of ego-centric cameras.
Extracting hand regions in ego-centric videos is a critical step for understanding handobject …

Skin colour detection is a technique very used in most of face detectors to find faces in
images or videos. However, there is not a common opinion about which colour space is the …

This paper offers the first comprehensive review of artificial intelligence (AI) research in the
context of real camera content acquisition for entertainment purposes and is aimed at both …

In this paper, we present a complete and practical algorithm for the approximation of level-
set-based curve evolution suitable for real-time implementation. In particular, we propose a …

In recent years, research efforts seeking to provide more natural, human-centered means of
interacting with computers have gained growing interest. A particularly important direction is …
