Phonology Recognition in American Sign Language [PDF]
ICASSP 2022 - 2022 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2021 Inspired by recent developments in natural language processing, we propose a novel approach to sign language processing based on phonological properties validated by American Sign Language users. By taking advantage of datasets composed of phonological data and people speaking sign language, we use a pretrained deep model based on mesh reconstruction ...
