The Challenge of Sign Language Phonology [PDF]
Annual Review of Linguistics, 2017 Comparing phonology in spoken language and sign language reveals that core properties, such as features, feature categories, the syllable, and constraints on form, exist in both naturally occurring language modalities. But apparent ubiquity can be deceptive.

Phonology Recognition in American Sign Language [PDF]
ICASSP 2022 - 2022 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2022 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 ...

Exploring Phonological Aspects of Australian Indigenous Sign Languages
Languages, 2021 Spoken languages make up only one aspect of the communicative landscape of Indigenous Australia—sign languages are also an important part of their rich and diverse language ecologies. Australian Indigenous sign languages are predominantly used by hearing
