From European Portuguese to Portuguese Sign Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several efforts have been done towards the development of platforms that allow the translation of specific sign languages to the correspondent spoken language (and vice-versa). In this (demo) paper, we describe a freely available system that translates, in real time, European Portuguese (text) into Portuguese Sign Language (LGP), by using an avatar. We focus in how some linguistic elements are dealt in LGP, and in the Natural Language Processing (NLP) step implemented in our system. The system’s interface will be used to demonstrate it. Although only a small set of linguistic phenomena are implemented, it can be seen how the system copes with it.
