AUTSL: A Large Scale Multi-Modal Turkish Sign Language Dataset and Baseline Methods [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2020 Sign language recognition is a challenging problem where signs are identified by simultaneous local and global articulations of multiple sources, i.e. hand shape and orientation, hand movements, body posture, and facial expressions.

Mixed SIGNals: Sign Language Production via a Mixture of Motion Primitives [PDF]
IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 2021 It is common practice to represent spoken languages at their phonetic level. However, for sign languages, this implies breaking motion into its constituent motion primitives.

Modality-Independent Effects of Phonological Neighborhood Structure on Initial L2 Sign Language Learning [PDF]
, 2015 The goal of the present study was to characterize how neighborhood structure in sign language influences lexical sign acquisition in order to extend our understanding of how the lexicon influences lexical acquisition in both sign and spoken languages.

How2Sign: A Large-scale Multimodal Dataset for Continuous American Sign Language [PDF]
Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2020 One of the factors that have hindered progress in the areas of sign language recognition, translation, and production is the absence of large annotated datasets. Towards this end, we introduce How2Sign, a multimodal and multiview continuous American Sign

Perceived Conventionality in Co-speech Gestures Involves the Fronto-Temporal Language Network
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017 Face-to-face communication is multimodal; it encompasses spoken words, facial expressions, gaze, and co-speech gestures. In contrast to linguistic symbols (e.g., spoken words or signs in sign language) relying on mostly explicit conventions, gestures ...

Exploring Networks of Lexical Variation in Russian Sign Language
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 When describing variation at the lexical level in sign languages, researchers often distinguish between phonological and lexical variants, using the following principle: if two signs differ in only one of the major phonological components (handshape ...

Constructed Action, the Clause and the Nature of Syntax in Finnish Sign Language
Open Linguistics, 2017 This paper investigates the interplay of constructed action and the clause in Finnish Sign Language (FinSL). Constructed action is a form of gestural enactment in which the signers use their hands, face and other parts of the body to represent the ...
