HaGRID - HAnd Gesture Recognition Image Dataset

We introduce a large image dataset HaGRID (HAnd Gesture Recognition Image Dataset) for hand gesture recognition (HGR) systems. You can use it for image classification or image detection tasks. Proposed dataset allows to build HGR systems, which can be used in video conferencing services (Zoom, Skype, Discord, Jazz etc.), home automation systems, the automotive sector, etc.

HaGRID size is 716GB and dataset contains 552,992 FullHD (1920 × 1080) RGB images divided into 18 classes of gestures. Also, some images have no_gesture class if there is a second free hand in the frame. This extra class contains 123,589 samples. The data were split into training 92%, and testing 8% sets by subject user_id, with 509,323 images for train and 43,669 images for test.

The dataset contains 34,730 unique persons and at least this number of unique scenes. The subjects are people from 18 to 65 years old. The dataset was collected mainly indoors with considerable variation in lighting, including artificial and natural light. Besides, the dataset includes images taken in extreme conditions such as facing and backing to a window. Also, the subjects had to show gestures at a distance of 0.5 to 4 meters from the camera.

Example of sample and its annotation:

or by using python script

python download.py --save_path <PATH_TO_SAVE> \
                   --train \
                   --test \
                   --subset \
                   --annotations \
                   --dataset

Run the following command with key --subset to download the small subset (100 images per class). You can download the train subset with --trainval or test subset with --test. Download annotations for selected stage by --annotations key. Download dataset with images by --dataset.

usage: download.py [-h] [--train] [--test] [--subset] [-a] [-d] [-t TARGETS [TARGETS ...]] [-p SAVE_PATH]

Models

We provide some pre-trained models as the baseline with the classic backbone architectures and two output heads - for gesture classification and leading hand classification.

Classifiers	F1 Gestures	F1 Leading hand
ResNet18	98.72	99.27
ResNet152	99.11	99.45
ResNeXt50	98.99	99.39
ResNeXt101	99.28	99.28
MobileNetV3_small	96.78	98.28
MobileNetV3_large	97.88	98.58
Vitb32	98.49	99.13

Also we provide SSDLite model with MobileNetV3 large backbone to solve hand detection problem.

Detector	mAP
SSDLite	71.49

Train

You can use downloaded trained models, otherwise select a classifier and parameters for training in default.yaml. To train the model, execute the following command:

python -m classifier.run --command 'train' --path_to_config <PATH>

Every step, the current loss, learning rate and others values get logged to Tensorboard. See all saved metrics and parameters by opening a command line (this will open a webpage at localhost:6006):

tensorboard --logdir=experiments

Test

Test your model by running the following command:

python -m classifier.run --command 'test' --path_to_config <PATH>

Demo

python demo.py -p <PATH_TO_DETECTOR> --landmarks

Annotations

The annotations consist of bounding boxes of hands in COCO format [top left X position, top left Y position, width, height] with gesture labels. Also, annotations have 21 landmarks in format [x,y] relative image coordinates, markups of leading hands (left or right for gesture hand) and leading_conf as confidence for leading_hand annotation. We provide user_id field that will allow you to split the train / val dataset yourself.
