A new approach for touch gesture recognition: Conversive Hidden non-Markovian Models

摘要

With the current boom of touch devices the recognition of touch gestures is becoming an important field of research. Performing such gestures can be seen as a stochastic process, as there can be many little differences between different executions. Therefore stochastic models like Hidden Markov Models have already been applied to gesture recognition. Although the modelling possibilities of Hidden Markov Models are limited, they achieve an acceptable recognition quality. But they have never been tested with gestures that only differ in execution speed.
