Technical Approaches to Chinese Sign Language Processing: A Review
Abstract
As with the huge number of deaf-mute people in China is of concern, there is a growing need to integrate them into mainstream society through the use of efficient sign language processing technologies. Sign language processing entails the systematic recognition and translation of sign language images/videos to text or speech. This survey provides an overview of the most important work on Chinese sign language recognition and translation, discussed its classification, highlights the features explored in sign language recognition research, presents the datasets available, and provides trends for the future research.
