This paper presents algorithms and a prototype system for hand tracking and hand posture recognition. Hand postures are represented in terms of hierarchies of multi-scale colour i...
We report mechanical impedance of the hand for sinusoidal stimulation at the threshold and suprathreshold levels in the frequency range of 10-500 Hz delivered through a ball-shape...
Particle filter and mean shift are two successful approaches taken in the pursuit of robust tracking. Both of them have their respective strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, w...
We propose a two-step method for detecting human heads and estimating face orientations under the dynamic environment. In the first step, the method employs an ellipse as the cont...
Techniques for color-based tracking of faces or hands often assume a static skin color model. However, skin color perceived by a camera can change when lighting changes. In common...
