A Cross-Linguistic Preference For Torso Stability In The Lexicon: Evidence From 24 Sign Languages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
When the arms move in certain ways, they can cause the torso to twist or rock. Such extraneous torso movement is undesirable, especially during sign language communication, when torso position may carry linguistic significance, so we expend effort to ...

Linguistically-driven framework for computationally efficient and scalable sign recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We introduce a new general framework for sign recognition from monocular video using limited quantities of annotated data. The novelty of the hybrid framework we describe here is that we exploit state-of-the art learning methods while also incorporating ...
