    Lingsheng Li1, Weiqing Bai2, Chong Han2,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.81, No.1, pp. 1613-1640, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.056073 - 15 October 2024

    Abstract Gestures are one of the most natural and intuitive approach for human-computer interaction. Compared with traditional camera-based or wearable sensors-based solutions, gesture recognition using the millimeter wave radar has attracted growing attention for its characteristics of contact-free, privacy-preserving and less environment-dependence. Although there have been many recent studies on hand gesture recognition, the existing hand gesture recognition methods still have recognition accuracy and generalization ability shortcomings in short-range applications. In this paper, we present a hand gesture recognition method named multiscale feature fusion (MSFF) to accurately identify micro hand gestures. In MSFF, not only the More >

    Abstract Hand gestures have been used as a significant mode of communication since the advent of human civilization. By facilitating human-computer interaction (HCI), hand gesture recognition (HGRoc) technology is crucial for seamless and error-free HCI. HGRoc technology is pivotal in healthcare and communication for the deaf community. Despite significant advancements in computer vision-based gesture recognition for language understanding, two considerable challenges persist in this field: (a) limited and common gestures are considered, (b) processing multiple channels of information across a network takes huge computational time during discriminative feature extraction. Therefore, a novel hand vision-based convolutional neural network… More >
