Abstract

Datasets are important for validation of any method or technique. The effectiveness of a method or technique can be well judged using an unbiased, complete and correct dataset. This paper presents a novel dataset to support validation of any computer vision method for recognition of Sattriya dance hand gestures, a fifteenth-century major Indian classical dance of the state of Assam. The dataset fulfils all the major requirements and has been established using five well-known classifiers. The sample of dataset is made available at http://​agnigarh.​tezu.​ernet.​in/​~dkb/​resources.​html.
