Abstract

This paper presents a gesture recognition method for detecting and classifying both cyclic and non-cyclic human motion patterns in real-time applications. The semantic segmentation of a constantly captured human motion data stream is a key research topic, especially if both cyclic and non-cyclic gestures are considered during the humancomputer interaction. The system measures the temporal coherence of the movements being captured according to its knowledge database, and once it has a sufficient level of certainty on its observation semantics the motion pattern is labeled automatically. In this way, our recognition method is also capable of handling time-varying dynamic gestures. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated via recognition experiments with a triple-axis accelerometer and a 3D tracker used by various performers.
