Abstract

Research in natural language processing has led to the creation of powerful tools for individuals, companies... However, these successes for written languages have not yet affected signed languages (SLs) to the same extent. The creation of similar tools for signed languages would benefit deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing people by making SL content, learning, and communication more accessible for everyone. SL recognition and translation are related to AI, but require collaboration with linguists and stakeholders. This paper describes related challenges from an AI researcher’s point of view and summarizes the state of the art in these domains.
