A hybrid method using haar-like and skin-color algorithm for hand posture detection, recognition and tracking

Human hand posture detection and recognition is a challenging problem in computer vision. We introduce an algorithm that is capable to recognize hand posture in a sophisticated background. The system combines two algorithms to achieve better detection rate for hand. Recently Viola et al. in [10]ha...
