Sumario:Robust inter-session modeling of gestures is still an open learning challenge. A sleeve equipped with capacitive strap sensors was used to capture two gesture data sets from a convenience sample of eight subjects. Two pipelines were explored. In FILT a novel two-stage algorithm was introduced which uses an unsupervised learning algorithm to find samples representing gesture transitions and discards them prior to training and validating conventional models. In TSC a confusion matrix was used to automatically consolidate commonly confused class labels, resulting in a set of gestures tailored to an individual subject’s abilities. The inter-session testing accuracy using the Time Series Consolidation (TSC) method increased from a baseline inter-session average of 42.47 ± 3.83% to 93.02% ± 4.97% while retaining an average of 5.29 ± 0.46 out of the 11 possible gesture categories. These pipelines used classic machine learning algorithms which require relatively small amounts of data and computational power compared to deep learning solutions. These methods may also offer more flexibility in interface design for users suffering from handicaps limiting their manual dexterity or ability to reliably make gestures, and be possible to implement on edge devices with low computational power.
