            Abstract : 
This paper is concerned with an early recognition and prediction algorithm of gestures. Early recognition is the algorithm to provide recognition results before input gestures are completed. Motion prediction is the algorithm to predict the subsequent posture of the performer by using early recognition. In addition to them, this paper considers a gesture network for improving the performance of these algorithms. The performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated by experiments of real-time control of a humanoid by gestures
