DYNAMIC DETERMINATION OF HUMAN GESTURES BASED ON CONTEXT
First Claim
1. A computer program product for determination of a contextual meaning of human gestures, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
- receive a visual image asset comprising a plurality of pixels that collectively depict a content of the visual image asset;
analyze the plurality of pixels according to a first digital image analysis protocol to determine at least one indicia of a context associated with the content of the visual image asset;
analyze the plurality of pixels according to a second digital image analysis protocol to determine a gesture indicated by the content of the visual image asset;
perform a semantic mapping to determine the contextual meaning of the gesture based on the at least one indicia of the context and the determined gesture; and
execute an operation responsive to determining the contextual meaning of the gesture, wherein at least one function of the operation is dependent upon the contextual meaning of the gesture.

Abstract
A system comprises a processor configured to execute instructions to receive an indication of an occurrence of a human gesture and to perform an analysis of the indication of the occurrence of the human gesture to determine contextual criteria having a relationship to the occurrence of the human gesture. The processor may determine a meaning of the human gesture based at least in part on the contextual criteria and a plurality of possible intended meanings for the human gesture. The processor also may execute an instruction respective to determining the meaning of the human gesture, wherein at least a portion of the instruction is dependent upon the meaning of the human gesture.

8. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving a digital media asset comprising a plurality of pixels; performing a first image analysis of the digital media asset at a pixel-based level to determine a gesture embodied within the digital media asset according to a first relationship among the plurality of pixels of the digital media asset; performing a second image analysis of the digital media asset at the pixel-based level to determine a context of the gesture according to a second relationship among the plurality of pixels of the digital media asset; and determining a cultural meaning of the gesture based on the determined gesture and the context of the gesture. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A system, comprising a processor configured to:
-
receive an indication of an occurrence of a human gesture; execute one or more instructions to perform an analysis of the indication of the occurrence of the human gesture to determine contextual criteria having a relationship to the occurrence of the human gesture; determine a meaning of the human gesture based at least in part on the contextual criteria and a plurality of possible intended meanings for the human gesture; and execute an instruction responsive to determining the meaning of the human gesture, wherein at least a portion of the instruction is dependent upon the meaning of the human gesture. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
