Latent diffusion approaches to sign language production (SLP) rely on an initial stage that learns an encoding of sign pose sequences, enabling generative modeling in the resulting latent space. The autoencoder used in this stage is typically evaluated in terms of reconstruction quality using geometric metrics common in SLP.
arXiv:2204. 02803v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sign language recognition from monocular video or 2D pose sequences is challenging, both because 3D information must be inferred from 2D observations and because the signal is inherently spatiotemporal.

arXiv:2608. 09045v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in sign language (SL) research have shown a trend toward unifying multiple sign language understanding (SLU) subtasks, such as isolated sign language recognition (ISLR), continuous sign language recognition (CSLR), and sign language translation (SLT), within a single framework, leading to substantial progress.
