Abstract:In this paper, we propose a novel model-based approach to recover 3D hand pose from 2D images through a compact articulated 3D hand model whose parameters are inferred in a Bayesian manner. To this end, we propose generative models for hand and background pixels leading to a loglikelihood objective function which aims at enclosing hand-like pixels within the silhouette of the projected 3D model while excluding background-like pixels.Segmentation and hand pose estimation are unified through the minimization of … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
