Performance Evaluation of Support Vector Machine Algorithm for Human Gesture Recognition

Abstract

Research on human motion gesture recognition has been widely used for several technological devices to support monitoring of human-computer interaction, elderly people and so forth. This research area can be observed by conducting experiments for several body movements, such as hand movements, or body movements as a whole. Many methods have been used for human motion gesture recognition in previous studies. This paper attempted to collect data of performance evaluation of support vector machine algorithms for human motion recognition. We developed research methodology that is adapted PRISMA. This methodology is consisted of four main steps for reviewing scientific articles, including identification, screening, eligibility and inclusion criteria. After we obtained result of systematic literature review. We also conducted pilot study of SVM implementation for human gesture recognition. Based on the previous study result, the accuracy performance of vector machine algorithms for body gesture dataset is between 82.88% - 99.92% and hand gesture dataset 88.24% - 95.42%. Based on our pilot experiment, recognition accuracy with the SVM algorithm for human gesture recognition achieved 94,50% (average) accuracy.
