Image Segmentation Techniques: A Survey

Segmenting an image utilizing diverse strategies is the primary technique of Image Processing. The technique is broadly utilized in clinical image handling, face acknowledgment, walker location, and so on. Various objects in an image can be recognized using image segmentation methods. Researchers have come up with various image segmentation methods for effective analysis. This paper presents a survey and sums up the designs process of essential image segmentation methods broadly utilized with their advantages and weaknesses

Machine learning methods for sign language recognition: a critical review and analysis.

Sign language is an essential tool to bridge the communication gap between normal and hearing-impaired people. However, the diversity of over 7000 present-day sign languages with variability in motion position, hand shape, and position of body parts making automatic sign language recognition (ASLR) a complex system. In order to overcome such complexity, researchers are investigating better ways of developing ASLR systems to seek intelligent solutions and have demonstrated remarkable success. This paper aims to analyse the research published on intelligent systems in sign language recognition over the past two decades. A total of 649 publications related to decision support and intelligent systems on sign language recognition (SLR) are extracted from the Scopus database and analysed. The extracted publications are analysed using bibliometric VOSViewer software to (1) obtain the publications temporal and regional distributions, (2) create the cooperation networks between affiliations and authors and identify productive institutions in this context. Moreover, reviews of techniques for vision-based sign language recognition are presented. Various features extraction and classification techniques used in SLR to achieve good results are discussed. The literature review presented in this paper shows the importance of incorporating intelligent solutions into the sign language recognition systems and reveals that perfect intelligent systems for sign language recognition are still an open problem. Overall, it is expected that this study will facilitate knowledge accumulation and creation of intelligent-based SLR and provide readers, researchers, and practitioners a roadmap to guide future direction

Review on Classification Methods used in Image based Sign Language Recognition System

Sign language is the way of communication among the Deaf-Dumb people by expressing signs. This paper is present review on Sign language Recognition system that aims to provide communication way for Deaf and Dumb pople. This paper describes review of Image based sign language recognition system. Signs are in the form of hand gestures and these gestures are identified from images as well as videos. Gestures are identified and classified according to features of Gesture image. Features are like shape, rotation, angle, pixels, hand movement etc. Features are finding by various Features Extraction methods and classified by various machine learning methods. Main pupose of this paper is to review on classification methods of similar systems used in Image based hand gesture recognition . This paper also describe comarison of various system on the base of classification methods and accuracy rate

Hand gesture recognition using Kinect.

Hand gesture recognition (HGR) is an important research topic because some situations require silent communication with sign languages. Computational HGR systems assist silent communication, and help people learn a sign language. In this thesis. a novel method for contact-less HGR using Microsoft Kinect for Xbox is described, and a real-time HCR system is implemented with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. Two different scenarios for HGR are provided: the Popular Gesture with nine gestures, and the Numbers with nine gestures. The system allows the users to select a scenario, and it is able to detect hand gestures made by users. to identify fingers, and to recognize the meanings of gestures, and to display the meanings and pictures on screen. The accuracy of the HGR system is from 84% to 99% with single hand gestures, and from 90% to 100% if both hands perform the same gesture at the same time. Because the depth sensor of Kinect is an infrared camera, the lighting conditions. signers\u27 skin colors and clothing, and background have little impact on the performance of this system. The accuracy and the robustness make this system a versatile component that can be integrated in a variety of applications in daily life
