Application ID: 13343061

Base Claim:
1. A method comprising: at a gesture device, detecting a gesture constituting movements from a user in three-dimensional space; identifying a possible electronic command associated with the gesture; generating a confidence score value for the electronic command associated with the gesture; comparing the electronic command associated with the gesture with a prior electronic command associated with a prior gesture previously detected by the gesture device to determine a compatibility metric between the electronic command and the prior electronic command; adjusting the confidence score value based on the compatibility metric to obtain a modified confidence score value; and executing the electronic command when the modified confidence score value is greater than a predetermined threshold confidence score value.

Claim 5:
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: assigning a first value for the compatibility metric to increase the confidence score by the first value when the electronic command and the prior electronic command are affinity gesture pairs; and assigning a second value for the compatibility metric to decrease the confidence score value by the second value when the electronic command and the prior electronic command are repellent gesture pairs.
