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...

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.
The paper introduces FS23K, a large-scale British Sign Language fingerspelling dataset created through an iterative annotation framework. It also presents a recognition model that incorporates bi‑manual interactions and mouthing cues, achieving a halved character error rate compared to previous state‑of‑the‑art methods. These results underscore the dataset’s and model’s value for advancing sign language research and automated annotation pipelines.
