摘要

This paper describes the techniques used to separate the hand from a cluttered background in a gesture recognition system. Target colors are identified using a histogram-like structure called a Color Predicate, which is trained in real-time using a novel algorithm. Running on standard PC hardware, the segmentation is of sufficient speed and quality to support an interactive user interface. The method has shown its flexibility in a range of different office environments, segmenting users with many different skin-tones. Variations have been applied to other problems including finding face candidates in video sequences.
