MULTI-LAYER SKIN DETECTION AND FUSED HAND POSE MATCHING

摘要

Embodiments of a system and methods for skin detection and pose determination of a hand in an image are generally described herein. A method for may include detecting skin pixels in an image using a multi- layer skin filter and classifying the skin pixels into a set of foreground skin pixels and a set of background skin pixels. The method may include storing information about the set of background skin pixels in a persistent memory. The method may include determining a set of features from the set of foreground skin pixels, and clustering features from the set of features to create a set of hand pose descriptors. The method may include determining a set of candidate hand pose region descriptors and a set of candidate hand pose contour descriptors that match the set of hand pose descriptors and detecting a valid hand pose using the sets of candidate descriptors.
