• Finger detection and hand posture recognition based on depth information 

      Poularakis, S.; Katsavounidis, I. (2014)
      In this work, we propose a novel framework for automatic finger detection and hand posture recognition, based mainly on depth information. Our method locates apex-shaped structures in a hand contour and deals efficiently ...
    • Full action instances for motion analysis 

      Poularakis, S.; Briassouli, A.; Kompatsiaris, I. (2009)
      Motion analysis is an important component of surveillance,video annotation and many other applications. Current work focuses on the tracking of moving entities, the representation of their actions and the classification ...
    • Sparse representations for hand gesture recognition 

      Poularakis, S.; Tsagkatakis, G.; Tsakalides, P.; Katsavounidis, I. (2013)
      Dynamic recognition of gestures from video sequences is a challenging task due to the high variability in the characteristics of each gesture with respect to different individuals. In this work, we propose a novel ...
