Towards automated large vocabulary gesture search
This paper describes work towards designing a computer vision system for helping users look up the meaning of a sign. Sign lookup is treated as a video database retrieval problem....

Efficient approximations to model-based joint tracking and recognition of continuous sign language
We propose several tracking adaptation approaches to recover from early tracking errors in sign language recognition by optimizing the obtained tracking paths w.r.t. to the hypoth...

Inferring the semantics of direction signs in public places
Abstract— Most large-scale public environments provide direction signs to facilitate the orientation for humans and to find their way to a goal location in the environment. Thus...

Toward Scalability in ASL Recognition: Breaking Down Signs into Phonemes
In this paper we present a novel approach to continuous, whole-sentence ASL recognition that uses phonemes instead of whole signs as the basic units. Our approach is based on a se...

Enhanced Level Building Algorithm for the Movement Epenthesis Problem in Sign Language Recognition
One of the hard problems in automated sign language recognition is the movement epenthesis (me) problem. Movement epenthesis is the gesture movement that bridges two consecutive s...
