Continuous sign language recognition (CSLR) is a key technology for accessibility, yet its development remains limited by the high cost of annotating continuous video streams. Active learning offers a...
SMART is a new framework that jointly tackles continuous sign language recognition (CSLR) and spotting by leveraging a multimodal large language model (MLLM) to generate motion descriptions as auxiliary semantic cues. It performs stable video‑text alignment with small batch sizes and introduces a Multi‑Scale Temporal Adapter to capture temporal interactions during transformer encoding. The framework also incorporates CSFormer, a CSLR‑guided spotting module that injects recognition‑derived gloss evidence into a boundary‑aware spotting network, enabling mutual benefit between recognition and spotting tasks.

Continuous sign language recognition (CSLR) aims to recognize gloss sequences from unsegmented sign videos under weak sequence-level supervision. However, existing methods rely on sentence-level gloss...
