Langue des signes et schémas

One goal of TAL is about translation assistance. Researches on interpretation French/Sign language show that a direct interpretation words → signs gives often maladjusted results. A stage of deverbalisation allows to avoid the reefs of signed French. This stage can use drawn presentations: schemata, diagrams, exploited in all variety of their forms. For an automatic translation, to add this stage can be a guarantee of better results. MOTS-CLÉS : langue des signes, traduction, interprétation, schématisation, déverbalisation.
