Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) Technologies for Sign Language Based Human-Computer Interaction
Sign language (SL) recognition modules in human-computer interaction systems need to be both fast and reliable. In cases where multiple sets of features are extracted from the SL d...
