The present disclosure provides a gesture recognition method as well as a terminal device and a computer-readable storage medium using the same. The method includes: obtaining a video stream collected by an image recording device in real time; performing a hand recognition on the video stream to determine static gesture information of a recognized hand in each video frame of the video stream; encoding the static gesture information in the video frames of the video stream in sequence to obtain an encoded information sequence of the recognized hands; and performing a slide detection on the encoded information sequence using a preset sliding window to determine a dynamic gesture category of each recognized hand. In this manner, static gesture recognition and dynamic gesture recognition are effectively integrated in the same process. The dynamic gesture recognition is realized through the slide detection of the sliding window without complex network calculations.

In a document represented by CMYK process colors, a color that a user wishes to remove is prevented from remaining without being removed by specified color removal, and even a color that the user does not wish to remove by rights is prevented from being removed.

Systems and methods are disclosed for non-linear color correction. The method including receiving an input image from an image sensor, converting the input image from a red, green, blue (RGB) color space format to an alternate color space format, determining localized hue correction parameters for a selected color in the alternate color space, determining localized saturation correction parameters for a selected hue in the alternate color space, applying the localized hue correction parameters and the localized saturation correction parameters to the input image to generate an output image and storing, displaying, or transmitting the output image based on at least the localized hue correction parameters and the localized saturation correction parameters.

An image processing method includes a first conversion step, a second conversion step that, using a second conversion table for converting input image data represented by a second color space to output image data represented by the second color space, converts image data of a second region for which recording conditions are different from a first region in a second image data, and a recording data generating step that generates recording data based on third image data including image data of a first region in the second image data and image data of the second region after conversion using the second conversion table. When adjusting an ink amount, the ink amount is not adjusted in the second conversion step and is adjusted in the first conversion step.
