Abstract

To overcome the limitation of hand shape recognition, the paper presented a recognition method of hand shape fusion based on the fuzzy neural network of BP. By means of fuzzy neural network of BP, the method analyzed the fusion computing for the collected hand gesture and lip shape image, viewed respectively the fusion image as the fuzzy set of hand gesture and lip shape, made the operation of fuzzy arithmetic operators for fuzzy set, matched the operation results and the sign of hand gesture and lip shape in database, carried on the fuzzy set operation for the gotten two sets of hand gesture and lip shape, finally got the recognition result. The simulation experiments show that the presented method is better in sign Language recognition, and it maybe has wide realistic application foreground in the education of deaf-and-dumb people.
