1. A method for determining an intended gesture-based input command from an incomplete gesture-based input command that is supplied to a gesture-based touch screen display that includes at least a touch sensitive region, the method comprising the steps of: receiving an incomplete gesture-based input command on the touch sensitive region of the gesture-based touch screen device, the incomplete gesture-based input command including a gesture profile and a gesture direction; generating gesture signals in response to the input command, the gesture signals including data representative of the gesture profile and the gesture direction; processing the gesture signals, in a processor, to predict the intended gesture-based input command; and retrieving, with the processor, the intended gesture-based command from an electronically stored standard gesture library.
