SignGPT is a unified, pose‑based framework that performs gloss‑free sign language translation (SLT) and generation (SLG) by integrating part‑aware hierarchical representations of body, hand, and facial motion into a shared language model. It uses asymmetric multi‑token prediction and progressive training for bidirectional modeling, and is evaluated on How2Sign (ASL) and Phoenix‑2014T (DGS) with benchmark comparisons, qualitative analyses, and component ablations. An exploratory study with 12 Deaf ASL signers demonstrates a sign‑to‑sign response pipeline, suggesting that unified modeling can support sign language conversation (SLC).

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.

We present the first experiments on isolated sign language recognition (ISLR) for Icelandic Sign Language (ÍTM). We use ÍTM SignWiki, a dataset derived from a bilingual Icelandic--ÍTM online dictionar...
