Abstract: Colorhasbeen widelyused for hand segmentation. However,
many approaches rely on predefined skin color models.
It is very difficult to predefine a color model in a mobile
application where the light condition may change dramatically
over time. In this paper, we propose a novel statistical
approach to hand segmentation based on Bayes decision
theory. The proposed method requires no predefined skin
color model. Instead it generates a hand color model and a
background color model for a given image, ... (Update)
