• A Linguistically Motivated Model for Speed and Pausing in Animations of American Sign Language

  Matt Huenerfauth · 2009 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This paper tackles a critical accessibility challenge: many deaf adults in the United States have English reading levels below average 10-year-old hearing students, creating barriers to accessing written web content. Computer-generated animations of American Sign Language (ASL)…

• Spatial and Temporal Pyramids for Grammatical Expression Recognition of American Sign Language

  Nicholas Michael, Dimitris Metaxas, Carol Neidle · 2009 · Proceedings of the 11th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '09)

  This paper presents a novel computer vision framework for recognizing grammatical facial expressions and head gestures in American Sign Language (ASL) video. While most sign language recognition research has focused on manual components (hand shapes and movements), this work…

• Accessible Motion-Capture Glove Calibration Protocol for Recording Sign Language Data from Deaf Subjects

  Pengfei Lu, Matt Huenerfauth · 2009 · Proceedings of the 11th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '09)

  This paper addresses a critical bottleneck in sign language technology research: the calibration of motion-capture gloves used to record handshape data from deaf signers. Motion-capture gloves like the CyberGlove contain sensors that measure finger joint angles, but they require…
