Adapted Contrastive Predictive Coding Framework for Accessible Smart Home Control System Based on Hand Gestures Recognition

Résumé

Smart home control systems have been widely used to control multiple smart home devices such as smart TVs, smart HVAC, and smart bulbs. While targeting the design of a smart home environment, the accessibility of the entire system is crucial to achieving a comfortable and accessible environment for all home individuals. Thus, in this paper, we are aiming to improve the daily quality of life of the elderly and Disabled individuals by improving the user experience of a vision-based accessible home control system based on an integrated self-supervised and supervised learning framework that provides a robust capability of extracting the features to enhance the overall performance via adapting the contrastive predictive coding concepts and deep learning for real-time hand gesture recognition system. The proposed framework provides an accessible smart home control system with a significant improvement in the user experience.
