Adapting the Assessing British Sign Language Development: Receptive Skills Test into American sign language.
Signed languages continue to be a key element of deaf education programs that incorporate a bilingual approach to teaching and learning. In order to monitor the success of bilingual deaf education programs, and in particular to monitor the progress of children acquiring signed language, it is essential to develop an assessment tool of signed language skills. Although researchers have developed ...
متن کاملTranslating Polish Texts into Sign Language in the Tgt System
In the paper a method of translation applied in a new system TGT is discussed. TGT translates texts written in Polish into corresponding utterances in the Polish sign language. Discussion is focused on text-into-text translation phase. Proper translation is done on the level of a predicative representation of the sentence. The representation is built on the basis of syntactic graph that depicts...
متن کاملInvestigating the underlying causes of SLI: A non-sign repetition test in British Sign Language
There is controversy over the specificity of Specific Language Impairment (SLI), and whether it is caused by a deficit general to cognition or in mechanisms specific to language itself. We argue that evidence to resolve these conflicting positions could come from the study of children who are acquiring sign language and have SLI. Whereas speech is characterized by rapid temporal changes, the ph...
متن کاملRecognition of Isolated Words of the Polish Sign Language
The paper considers recognition of isolated words of the Polish Sign Language using a canonical stereo system that observes the signer from a frontal view. Recognition is based on human skin detection and Hidden Markov Models. Several feature vectors taking into account information about the hand shape and 3D position of the hand with respect to the face are examined. To improve the recognition...
متن کاملSegmentation of British Sign Language (BSL): mind the gap!
This study asks how users of British Sign Language (BSL) recognize individual signs in connected sign sequences. We examined whether this is achieved through modality-specific or modality-general segmentation procedures. A modality-specific feature of signed languages is that, during continuous signing, there are salient transitions between sign locations. We used the sign-spotting task to ask ...
