Learning to spell in Hebrew: Phonological and morphological factors This paper investigates children’s developing knowledge of the Hebrew spelling system in view of the claim that language-specific typology affects the rate and the pattern of development of orthographic spelling. Hebrew is a morphologically synthetic language with a phonologically “deep” orthography, on the one hand, and a cons...

A context-based spelling error is a spelling or typing error that turns an intended word into another word of the language. For example, the intended word “sight” might become the word “site.” A spell checker cannot identify such an error. In the English language— the case of interest here—a syntax checker may also fail to catch such an error since, among other reasons, the parts-of-speech of a...

As a primary component of Chinese Sign Language(CSL), finger-spelling language plays an important role in deaf education and their communication. With the help of spelling rule, the system that can recognize the alphabet flow can understand and interpret CSL. So in this paper the method of effective frame extraction is proposed and used to eliminate the transition frames in the alphabet flow. A...

This paper is devoted to finger spelling recognition on the basis of images acquired by a single color camera. The recognition is realized on the basis of learned low-dimensional embeddings. The embeddings are calculated both by single as well as multiple siamese-based convolutional neural networks. We train classifiers operating on such features as well as convolutional neural networks operati...
