Model-Based Hand Tracking by Chamfer Distance and Adaptive Color Learning Using Particle Filter

We propose a new model-based hand tracking method for recovering of three-dimensional hand motion from an image sequence. We first build a three-dimensional hand model using truncated quadrics. The degrees of freedom (DOF) for each joint correspond to the DOF of a real hand. This feature extraction...
