A novel approach to American Sign Language (ASL) phrase verification using reversed signing

2010 IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition - Workshops, 2010
We propose a novel approach for American Sign Langauge (ASL) phrase verification that combines confidence measures (CM) obtained from aligning forward sign models (the conventional approach) to the input data with the CM's obtained from aligning reversed sign models to the same input.

Purdue RVL-SLLL ASL database for automatic recognition of American Sign Language

Proceedings. Fourth IEEE International Conference on Multimodal Interfaces, 2003
This article reports on an extensive database of American Sign Language (ASL) motions, handshapes, words and sentences. Research on automatic recognition of ASL requires a suitable database for the training and the testing of algorithms. The databases that are currently available do not allow, for algorithmic development that requires a step-by-step ...
