This paper presents a practical method for hypothesizing hand locations and subsequently recognizing a discrete number of poses in image sequences. In a typical setting the user is...
In this paper, we present a novel feature extraction approach based on Curvature Scale Space (CSS) for translation, scale, and rotation invariant recognition of hand poses. First,...
This paper describes a system that uses a camera and a point light source to track a user's hand in three dimensions. Using depth cues obtained from projections of the hand a...
This paper presents an analysis of the design of classifiers for use in a hierarchical object recognition approach. In this approach, a cascade of classifiers is arranged in a tr...

A robot’s ability to assist humans in a variety of tasks, e.g. in search and rescue or in a household, heavily depends on the robot’s reliable recognition of the objects in th...
