1. A method for recognizing gestures in video data at times associated with music comprising:
- receiving audio data which represents music that has a beat formed of an audibly perceptible periodic pulse contained within the audio data;
obtaining beat data indicative of said beat data for said audio data;
playing said audio data, and using said beat to determine a gesture window associated with said audio data;
obtaining video data during the time of said gesture window during which a target gesture should occur;
segmenting said video data to form individual frames of video data and investigating said frames to recognize gestures in said frames and to determine gesture probabilities which represent whether said gestures represent target gestures; and
determining if a gesture probability associated with said gestures represents that the target gesture has been determined during said frame.

1. A method for recognizing gestures in video data at times associated with music comprising:
-
receiving audio data which represents music that has a beat formed of an audibly perceptible periodic pulse contained within the audio data; obtaining beat data indicative of said beat data for said audio data; playing said audio data, and using said beat to determine a gesture window associated with said audio data; obtaining video data during the time of said gesture window during which a target gesture should occur; segmenting said video data to form individual frames of video data and investigating said frames to recognize gestures in said frames and to determine gesture probabilities which represent whether said gestures represent target gestures; and determining if a gesture probability associated with said gestures represents that the target gesture has been determined during said frame. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

7. A system for recognizing gestures in video data at times associated with music comprising:
-
an audio receiving part that receives audio data representing music that has a beat formed of an audibly perceptible periodic pulse contained within the audio data; a recognition subsystem and timing data source, operative to determine said beat data indicative of said beat, and to define a gesture window of time based on said beat, during which gesture window, a target gesture should occur; a video device, receiving video, and segmenting said video into a plurality of different frames; and wherein said recognition subsystem and timing data source is also operative to recognize gestures within said frames and determine probabilities of which gestures are represented within the frames and whether the gestures represent the target gesture. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer program product, tangibly stored on a computer readable medium, for recognizing gestures in video data at times associated with music, comprising instructions operable to cause a programmable processor to:
-
receive audio data which represents music that has a beat formed of an audibly perceptible periodic pulse contained within the audio data; obtaining beat data indicative of said beat associated with said audio data; play said audio data, and using said beat data to determine a gesture window associated with the audio data; obtain video data during a time defined by said gesture window during which a target gesture should occur; segment said video data to form individual frames of video data and investigate said individual frames to determine gesture probabilities indicative of whether target gestures are contained in said frames; and determine if a gesture probability represents that the target gesture has been determined during said frame. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)
