A Token-level Contrastive Framework for Sign Language Translation

biaofuxmu/conslt 11 Apr 2022

Sign Language Translation (SLT) is a promising technology to bridge the communication gap between the deaf and the hearing people.

Explore More Guidance: A Task-aware Instruction Network for Sign Language Translation Enhanced with Data Augmentation

yongcaoplus/tin-slt Findings (NAACL) 2022

Sign language recognition and translation first uses a recognition module to generate glosses from sign language videos and then employs a translation module to translate glosses into spoken sentences.

Open-Domain Sign Language Translation Learned from Online Video

chevaliernoir/openasl 25 May 2022

Existing work on sign language translation - that is, translation from sign language videos into sentences in a written language - has focused mainly on (1) data collected in a controlled environment or (2) data in a specific domain, which limits the applicability to real-world settings.

Machine Translation between Spoken Languages and Signed Languages Represented in SignWriting

j22melody/signwriting-translation 11 Oct 2022

This paper presents work on novel machine translation (MT) systems between spoken and signed languages, where signed languages are represented in SignWriting, a sign language writing system.

Two-Stream Network for Sign Language Recognition and Translation

FangyunWei/SLRT 2 Nov 2022

RGB videos, however, are raw signals with substantial visual redundancy, leading the encoder to overlook the key information for sign language understanding.

Better Sign Language Translation with Monolingual Data

pengr/mono_slt 21 Apr 2023

Sign language translation (SLT) systems, which are often decomposed into video-to-gloss (V2G) recognition and gloss-to-text (G2T) translation through the pivot gloss, heavily relies on the availability of large-scale parallel G2T pairs.
