People who perform the gestures are the same as training and evaluation dataset. It is not necessary to segment the gesture in frames, only label 10 gestures in each sequence. Feel free to ask any question.</p>\n<p>Greetings,</p>\n<p><br>Miguel Reyes Estany&quot;</p>\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\n<p>My question is:</p>\n<p>&quot;Does that mean for testing dataset, the label number is fixed at 10 unique numbers (out of 20). That's quite different from validation dataset ( I assume there will be around 10 gestures (NOT fixed)&nbsp;in one sequence and there might be several same gestures in a video sequence). Can you give us some further instructions concerning with the validation dataset since validation set and test set have different structure and it will cause the design of our system to be quite different for validation set and testing set.</p>\n<p>Thank you</p>\n<p>&nbsp;</p>",
