Vision-based hand pose estimation and gesture recognition

Abstract

I would like to thank my wife, Jia Liu. Without her company, support, love and encouragement, it is not possible for me to focus on study and research dedicatedly. My success to complete my PhD study is largely attributed to her. Finally, I want to thank my parents Fusheng Liang and Xiumei Tian and all other family members in China, for their dedication, love and support.
