Recognition of Vietnamese sign language using MEMS accelerometers

چکیده

In this paper, we present work on understanding Vietnamese sign language through the use of Micro Electronic Mechanical System (MEMS) accelerometers. The system consists of six ADXL202 accelerometers for sensing the hand posture, a BASIC Stamp microcontroller and a PC for data acquisition and recognition of sign language. The data is then transformed to relative angles between fingers and the palm. Each character is recognized by a fuzzy rule based classification system, which allows the concept of vagueness in recognition. In addition, a set of Vietnamese spelling rules has been applied to improve the classification results.

Animal Sign language recognition using MEMS

Mple dog’s express their feelings by oscillating his tail. Similarly cows express their feelings with his feet, neck and tail. Every feeling has its distinct body movements. So by placing this model on their communicating body part we transform the animal feelings into words and phrases. This model also helps the deaf and dumb community to communicate with others in oral langage. Prototype of s...

Random Forest-Based Recognition of Isolated Sign Language Subwords Using Data from Accelerometers and Surface Electromyographic Sensors

Sign language recognition (SLR) has been widely used for communication amongst the hearing-impaired and non-verbal community. This paper proposes an accurate and robust SLR framework using an improved decision tree as the base classifier of random forests. This framework was used to recognize Chinese sign language subwords using recordings from a pair of portable devices worn on both arms consi...

MAN-MACHINE INTERACTION SYSTEM FOR SUBJECT INDEPENDENT SIGN LANGUAGE RECOGNITION USING FUZZY HIDDEN MARKOV MODEL

Sign language recognition has spawned more and more interest in human–computer interaction society. The major challenge that SLR recognition faces now is developing methods that will scale well with increasing vocabulary size with a limited set of training data for the signer independent application. The automatic SLR based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) is very sensitive to gesture's shape inf...

A Component-Based Vocabulary-Extensible Sign Language Gesture Recognition Framework

Sign language recognition (SLR) can provide a helpful tool for the communication between the deaf and the external world. This paper proposed a component-based vocabulary extensible SLR framework using data from surface electromyographic (sEMG) sensors, accelerometers (ACC), and gyroscopes (GYRO). In this framework, a sign word was considered to be a combination of five common sign components, ...

Applying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language

Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...
