Many conventional human detection methods use features based on gradients, such as histograms of oriented gradients (HOG), but human occlusions and complex backgrounds make accurat...
We present an algorithm for the real-time detection and interpretation of pointing gestures, performed with one or both arms. The pointing gestures are used as an intuitive tracki...
As computer systems become increasingly internetworked, there is a growing class of distributed realtime embedded (DRE) applications that have characteristics and present challeng...
