Hand gestures recognition goals can only be fulfilled when gesture isolation is coupled with an effective feature extraction followed by highly efficient classification. In the context of machine vision, feature extraction and classification can be jointly called pattern recognition in which, previous known patterns are matched with a query gesture.
