The neural networks currently outperform earlier approaches to the hand pose estimation. However, to achieve the superior results a large amount of the appropriate training data is desperately needed. But the acquisition of the real hand pose data is a time and resources consuming process. One of the possible solutions uses the synthetic training data. We introduce a method to generate synthetic depth images of the hand closely matching the real images. We extend the approach of the previous works to the modeling of the depth image data using the 3D scan of the subject’s hand and the hand pose prior given by the real data distribution. We found out that combining them with the real training data can result in a better performance.
