Feature space transforms for Czech sign-language recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe a HMM-based sign language recognition (SLR) system for isolated signs. In the first part we describe the image parametrization method producing features used for recognition. Our goal was to find the best combination of a feature space dimension reduction method and an HMM structure.

Evaluation of Feature Space Transforms for Czech Sign-Language Recognition
In the paper we give a brief introduction into sign language recognition and present a particular research task, where the access to MetaCentrum computing facilities was highly beneficial. Although the problem of signed speech recognition is currently being researched into by many research institutions all around the world, it lacks of a generally accepted baseline parametrization method. Our t...
متن کاملDesign and recording of Czech sign language corpus for automatic sign language recognition
We describe the design, recording and content of a Czech Sign Language database in this paper. The database is intended for training and testing of sign language recognition (SLR) systems. The UWB-06-SLR-A database contains video data of 15 signers recorded from 3 different views, two of them capture whole body and provide 3D motion data, and third one is focused on signer’s face and provide da...

This paper discusses the design, recording and preprocessing of a Czech sign language corpus. The corpus is intended for training and testing of sign language recognition (SLR) systems. The UWB-07-SLR-P corpus contains video data of 4 signers recorded from 3 different perspectives. Two of the perspectives contain whole body and provide 3D motion data, the third one is focused on signer’s face a...
متن کاملLow-dimensional space transforms of posteriors in speech recognition
In this paper we present three novel posterior transforms with the primary goal to achieve a high reduction of a feature vector size. The presented methods transform the posteriors to 1D or 2D space. For such a high reduction ratio the usually applied methods fail to keep the discriminative information. Contrary, the presented methods were specifically designed to retain most of the discriminat...

One of the most common ways of communication in deaf community is sign language recognition. This paper focuses on the problem of recognizing Arabic sign language at word level used by the community of deaf people. The proposed system is based on the combination of Spatio-Temporal local binary pattern (STLBP) feature extraction technique and support vector machine classifier. The system takes a...
