Bridging the Gap Between Semantics and Reconstruction:Unifying Sign Language Translation and Production

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.

A HamNoSys-Guided Dataset and Baselines for Fine-Grained Isolated Handshape Recognition in Sign Language

arXiv:2608. 10588v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Purpose: Fine-grained handshape recognition supports computational sign-language transcription, recognition, and translation, but broad, phonetically defined visual inventories with signer-aware evaluation remain limited.
