Visual Sign Language Recognition Based on HMMs and Auto-regressive HMMs
Abstract. A sign language recognition system based on Hidden Markov Models(HMMs) and Auto-regressive Hidden Markov Models(ARHMMs) has been proposed in this paper. ARHMMs fully cons...

Combination of Tangent Distance and an Image Distortion Model for Appearance-Based Sign Language Recognition
In this paper, we employ a zero-order local deformation model to model the visual variability of video streams of American sign language (ASL) words. We discuss two possible ways o...

Exploiting Phonological Constraints for Handshape Inference in ASL Video
Handshape is a key linguistic component of signs, and thus, handshape recognition is essential to algorithms for sign language recognition and retrieval. In this work, linguistic ...
