American Sign Language Recognition Using Leap Motion Sensor

Chuan, Ching-Hua, Regina, Eric, Guardino, Caroline·2014·2014 13th International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications

Abstract

In this paper, we present an American Sign Language recognition system using a compact and affordable 3D motion sensor. The palm-sized Leap Motion sensor provides a much more portable and economical solution than Cyblerglove or Microsoft kinect used in existing studies. We apply k-nearest neighbor and support vector machine to classify the 26 letters of the English alphabet in American Sign Language using the derived features from the sensory data. The experiment result shows that the highest average classification rate of 72.78% and 79.83% was achieved by k-nearest neighbor and support vector machine respectively. We also provide detailed discussions on the parameter setting in machine learning methods and accuracy of specific alphabet letters in this paper.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
