Visual Sign Language Recognition
We have developed the Hand Motion Understanding (HMU) system that understands static and dynamic signs of the Australian Sign Language (Auslan). The HMU system uses a visual 3D hand tracker for motion sensing, and an adaptive fuzzy expert system for classification of the signs. This paper presents the hand tracker that extracts 3D hand configuration data with 21 degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) from a...
متن کاملSonority substitutions in language disorders
In this paper we consider a widely attested process: sonority substitutions whereby sounds of a certain sonority class change into sounds of another sonority class. These sonority substitutions concern, for example, liquids (/l,r/) changing into glides (/j,w/). The target word groen ‘green’ may be realized by an aphasic speaker as [xjUn] or [xwUn]. We will discuss these sonority substitutions i...
متن کاملRobust Person-Independent Visual Sign Language Recognition
Sign language recognition constitutes a challenging field of research in computer vision. Common problems like overlap, ambiguities, and minimal pairs occur frequently and require robust algorithms for feature extraction and processing. We present a system that performs person-dependent recognition of 232 isolated signs with an accuracy of 99.3% in a controlled environment. Person-independent r...
متن کاملVisual cortex entrains to sign language.
Despite immense variability across languages, people can learn to understand any human language, spoken or signed. What neural mechanisms allow people to comprehend language across sensory modalities? When people listen to speech, electrophysiological oscillations in auditory cortex entrain to slow ([Formula: see text]8 Hz) fluctuations in the acoustic envelope. Entrainment to the speech envelo...
متن کاملVisual intonation in the prosody of a sign language.
While visual signals that accompany spoken language serve to augment the communicative message, the same visual ingredients form the substance of the linguistic system in sign languages. This article provides an analysis of visual signals that comprise part of the intonational system of a sign language. The system is conveyed mainly by particular actions of the upper face, and is shown to patte...
