The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

In this work we develop the mathematical framework of !FTL, a new gesture recognition algorithm and we prove its convergence. Such convergence suggests to adopt a notion of shape for smooth gestures as a complex valued function. However, the idea inspiring that notion came to us from Clifford numbers and not from complex numbers. Moreover, the Clifford vector algebra can be used to extend to higher dimensions the notion of shape of a gesture, while complex numbers are useless to that purpose.

The paper
Original abstract

In this work we develop the mathematical framework of !FTL, a new gesture recognition algorithm and we prove its convergence. Such convergence suggests to adopt a notion of shape for smooth gestures as a complex valued function. However, the idea inspiring that notion came to us from Clifford numbers and not from complex numbers. Moreover, the Clifford vector algebra can be used to extend to higher dimensions the notion of shape of a gesture, while complex numbers are useless to that purpose.
