What's the Point? Spatial Grammar & Index Resolution for Sign Language Processing
Oline Ranum, Simon Hadfield, Richard Bowden
Sign language models are predominantly trained with gloss-sequence or text supervision, thereby under-modeling non-lexical and productive constructions. One comparatively tractable…
Using Sign Language Production as Data Augmentation to enhance Sign Language Translation
Harry Walsh, Maksym Ivashechkin, Richard Bowden
Machine learning models fundamentally rely on large quantities of high-quality data. Collecting the necessary data for these models can be challenging due to cost, scarcity, and pr…
Select and Reorder: A Novel Approach for Neural Sign Language Production
Harry Walsh, Ben Saunders, Richard Bowden
Sign languages, often categorised as low-resource languages, face significant challenges in achieving accurate translation due to the scarcity of parallel annotated datasets. This…
A Data-Driven Representation for Sign Language Production
Harry Walsh, Abolfazl Ravanshad, Mariam Rahmani +1
Phonetic representations are used when recording spoken languages, but no equivalent exists for recording signed languages. As a result, linguists have proposed several annotation…
