AUTH UAV Gesture Dataset

AUTH has created the “AUTH UAV Gesture Dataset” in the context of the “AERIAL-CORE” collaborative project, funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. The AUTH UAV Gesture Dataset contains videos depicting human subjects performing 6 classes of gestures. This dataset can be employed for training/evaluating gesture recognition machine learning models. It incorporates parts of the “UAV-Gesture” dataset (from the University of South Australia) and of the “NTU RGB+D” dataset (from the ROSE Lab). AUTH made the AUTH UAV Gesture Dataset available to researchers only in order to advance relevant academic research and assist exchange of information that promotes science. If one uses any part of these datasets in his/her work, he/she is kindly asked to cite the following three papers:
