The use of mobile phones as service-delivery devices in sign language machine translation system
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
This thesis investigates the use of mobile phones as service-delivery devices in a sign language machine translation system. Four sign language visualization methods were evaluated on mobile phones. Three of the methods ...
Video annotation wiki for South African sign language
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)
The SASL project at the University of the Western Cape aims at developing a fully automated translation system between English and South African Sign Language (SASL). Three important aspects of this system require SASL ...
Upper body pose recognition and estimation towards the translation of South African sign language
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)
Recognising and estimating gestures is a fundamental aspect towards translating from a sign language to a spoken language. It is a challenging problem and at the same time, a growing phenomenon in Computer Vision. This ...
The efficacy of the Eigenvector approach to South African sign language identification
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
The communication barriers between deaf and hearing society mean that interaction between these communities is kept to a minimum. The South African Sign Language research group, Integration of Signed and Verbal Communication: ...
Chereme-based recognition of isolated, dynamic gestures from South African sign language with Hidden Markov Models
(University of the Western Cape, 2006)
Much work has been done in building systems that can recognize gestures, e.g. as a component of sign language recognition systems. These systems typically use whole gestures as the smallest unit for recognition. Although ...
South African sign language recognition using feature vectors and Hidden Markov Models
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
This thesis presents a system for performing whole gesture recognition for South African Sign Language. The system uses feature vectors combined with Hidden Markov models. In order to constuct a feature vector, dynamic ...
