In the context of human-computer non-verbal communication, the visual interface becomes important in establishing communication via understanding human intention from their behaviour, such as facial expressions, hand gestures, etc. With the increasing interest in human-computer interaction (HCI), there has been rapid growth in studies related to visionbased gesture recognition in recent years. Hand gesture recognition from visual images finds applications in areas like human-computer interaction, machine vision, sign language, virtual reality, augmented reality, and so on.enELECTRONICS AND ELECTRICAL ENGINEERINGThesis
