BoMW: Bag of Manifold Words for One-Shot Learning Gesture Recognition From Kinect
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, we study one-shot learning gesture recognition on RGB-D data recorded from Microsoft's Kinect. To this end, we propose a novel bag of manifold words (BoMW)-based feature representation on symmetric positive definite (SPD) manifolds. In particular, we use covariance matrices to extract local features from RGB-D data due to its compact representation ability as well as the convenience of fusing both RGB and depth information. Since covariance matrices are SPD matrices and the space spanned by them is the SPD manifold, traditional learning methods in the Euclidean space, such as sparse coding, cannot be directly applied to them. To overcome this problem, we propose a unified framework to transfer the sparse coding on SPD manifolds to the one on the Euclidean space, which enables any existing learning method to be used. After building BoMW representation on a video from each gesture class, a nearest neighbor classifier is adopted to perform the one-shot learning gesture recognition. Experimental results on the ChaLearn gesture data set demonstrate the outstanding performance of the proposed one-shot learning gesture recognition method compared against the state-of-the-art methods. The effectiveness of the proposed feature extraction method is also validated on a new RGB-D action recognition data set.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
