arXiv:2605. 01720v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing large-scale sign language resources typically provide supervision only at the level of raw video-text alignment and are often produced in laboratory settings.
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:2609.12993v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We investigate the effect of pretrained T5 model scale and explicit motion features on pose-to-text Indian Sign Language Translation (SLT) for the WS...
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...
The paper introduces the Sequential Spatio-Temporal Attention Network (SSTAN), a Transformer-based architecture that replaces traditional Graph Convolutional Networks for sign language recognition. SSTAN uses a hierarchical, stacked design with Spatial Multi-Head Attention to model joint relationships within frames and Temporal Multi-Head Attention to capture long-range dependencies across frames, eliminating the need for predefined skeletal graphs. Experiments on large-scale datasets (WLASL, JSL, KSL) show that SSTAN, trained from scratch, achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance in fingerspelling categories and outperforms other skeleton‑only methods on WLASL, highlighting its data efficiency and ability to learn complex spatio‑temporal patterns.
