Learning Signs from Subtitles: A Weakly Supervised Approach to Sign Language Recognition
This paper introduces a fully-automated, unsupervised method to recognise sign from subtitles. It does this by using data mining to align correspondences in sections of videos. Bas...

Learning sign language by watching TV (using weakly aligned subtitles)
The goal of this work is to automatically learn a large number of British Sign Language (BSL) signs from TV broadcasts. We achieve this by using the supervisory information avai...

Sign Language Recognition: Working with Limited Corpora
The availability of video format sign language corpora limited. This leads to a desire for techniques which do not rely on large, fully-labelled datasets. This paper covers various...

Rapid signer adaptation for continuous sign language recognition using a combined approach of eigenvoices, MLLR, and MAP
Current sign language recognition systems are still designed for signer-dependent operation only and thus suffer from the problem of interpersonal variability in production. Appli...

Weakly Supervised Named Entity Transliteration and Discovery from Multilingual Comparable Corpora
Named Entity recognition (NER) is an important part of many natural language processing tasks. Current approaches often employ machine learning techniques and require supervised d...
