Description
In recent years, deep learning systems have outperformed traditional machine learning systems in most domains. There has been a lot of research recently in the field of hand gesture recognition using wearable sensors due to the numerous advantages these systems have over vision-based ones. However, due to the lack of extensive datasets and the nature of the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) data, there are difficulties in applying deep learning techniques to them. Although many machine learning models have good accuracy, most of them assume that training data is available for every user while other works that do not require user data have lower accuracies. MirrorGen is a technique which uses wearable sensor data and generates synthetic videos using hand movements and it mitigates the traditional challenges of vision based recognition such as occlusion, lighting restrictions, lack of viewpoint variations, and environmental noise. In addition, MirrorGen allows for user-independent recognition involving minimal human effort during data collection. It also helps leverage the advances in vision-based recognition by using various techniques like optical flow extraction, 3D convolution. Projecting the orientation (IMU) information to a video helps in gaining position information of the hands. To validate these claims, we perform entropy analysis on various configurations such as raw data, stick model, hand model and real video. Human hand model is found to have an optimal entropy that helps in achieving user independent recognition. It also serves as a pervasive option as opposed to a video-based recognition. The average user independent recognition accuracy of 99.03% was achieved for a sign language dataset with 59 different users, 20 different signs with 20 repetitions each for a total of 23k training instances. Moreover, synthetic videos can be used to augment real videos to improve recognition accuracy.
