Word-level sign language recognition (WSLR) has attracted attention because it is expected to overcome the communication barrier between people with speech impairment and those who can hear. In the WSLR problem, a method designed for action…
The primary concern of this research is to take American Sign Language (ASL) data through real time camera footage and be able to convert the data and information into text. Adding to that, we are also putting focus on creating a framework…
Continuous sign language recognition (SLR) is a challenging task that requires learning on both spatial and temporal dimensions of signing frame sequences. Most recent work accomplishes this by using CNN and RNN hybrid networks. However,…
Sign languages are essential for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) community. Sign language generation systems have the potential to support communication by translating from written languages, such as English, into signed videos. However,…
Signed Language Processing (SLP) concerns the automated processing of signed languages, the main means of communication of Deaf and hearing impaired individuals. SLP features many different tasks, ranging from sign recognition to…
Sign language recognition (SLR) is a challenging problem, involving complex manual features, i.e., hand gestures, and fine-grained non-manual features (NMFs), i.e., facial expression, mouth shapes, etc. Although manual features are…
In recent years, deep learning techniques have been used to develop sign language recognition systems, potentially serving as a communication tool for millions of hearing-impaired individuals worldwide. However, there are inherent…
The Arabic Sign Language has endorsed outstanding research achievements for identifying gestures and hand signs using the deep learning methodology. The term "forms of communication" refers to the actions used by hearing-impaired people to…
This research explores using lightweight deep neural network architectures to enable the humanoid robot Pepper to understand American Sign Language (ASL) and facilitate non-verbal human-robot interaction. First, we introduce a lightweight…
Hearing-impaired is the disability of partial or total hearing loss that causes a significant problem for communication with other people in society. American Sign Language (ASL) is one of the sign languages that most commonly used language…
This paper investigates RF-based system for automatic American Sign Language (ASL) recognition. We consider radar for ASL by joint spatio-temporal preprocessing of radar returns using time frequency (TF) analysis and high-resolution receive…
Sign language translation (SLT), which generates text in a spoken language from visual content in a sign language, is important to assist the hard-of-hearing community for their communications. Inspired by neural machine translation (NMT),…
Fingerspelling, in which words are signed letter by letter, is an important component of American Sign Language. Most previous work on automatic fingerspelling recognition has assumed that the boundaries of fingerspelling regions in signing…
Sign language translation is one of the important issues in communication between deaf and hearing people, as it expresses words through hand, body, and mouth movements. American Sign Language is one of the sign languages used, one of which…
This study explores integrating sign language into virtual reality (VR) by examining the comprehensibility and user experience of viewing American Sign Language (ASL) videos captured with body-mounted 360-degree cameras. Ten participants…
This paper presents an Arabic Alphabet Sign Language recognition approach, using deep learning methods in conjunction with transfer learning and transformer-based models. We study the performance of the different variants on two publicly…
The recent surge in large language models has automated translations of spoken and written languages. However, these advances remain largely inaccessible to American Sign Language (ASL) users, whose language relies on complex visual cues.…
Sign Language Recognition (SLR) is an essential yet challenging task since sign language is performed with the fast and complex movement of hand gestures, body posture, and even facial expressions. %Skeleton Aware Multi-modal Sign Language…
Sign language is a visual language expressed through hand movements and non-manual markers. Non-manual markers include facial expressions and head movements. These expressions vary across different nations. Therefore, specialized analysis…
Hand gesture recognition possesses extensive applications in virtual reality, sign language recognition, and computer games. The direct interface of hand gestures provides us a new way for communicating with the virtual environment. In this…
