TLDR
This work focuses on the visual sensory information to recognize human activity in form of hand-arm movements from a small, predefined vocabulary by means of a matching technique by determining the distance between the unknown input and a set of previously defined templates.Abstract:
We focus on the visual sensory information to recognize human activity in form of hand-arm movements from a small, predefined vocabulary. We accomplish this task by means of a matching technique by determining the distance between the unknown input and a set of previously defined templates. A dynamic time warping algorithm is used to perform the time alignment and normalization by computing a temporal transformation allowing the two signals to be matched. The system is trained with finite video sequences of single gesture performances whose start and end-point are accurately known. Preliminary experiments are accomplished off-line and result in a recognition accuracy of up to 92%.read more

A PCA-based similarity measure for multivariate time series
Kiyoung Yang,Cyrus Shahabi +1 more
TL;DR: The results show the superiority of the approaches as compared to the traditional similarity measures for MTS datasets, such as Euclidean Distance (ED), Dynamic Time Warping (DTW), Weighted Sum SVD (WSSVD) and PCA similarity factor (SPCA ) in precision/recall.

Dynamic Programming
TL;DR: The more the authors study the information processing aspects of the mind, the more perplexed and impressed they become, and it will be a very long time before they understand these processes sufficiently to reproduce them.

Fundamentals of speech recognition
TL;DR: This book presents a meta-modelling framework for speech recognition that automates the very labor-intensive and therefore time-heavy and therefore expensive and expensive process of manually modeling speech.
