This works aims to design a statistical machine translation from English text to American Sign Language (ASL). The system is based on Moses tool with some modifications and the results are synthesized through a 3D avatar for interpretation. First, we translate the input text to gloss, a written form of ASL. Second, we pass the output to the WebSign Plug-in to play the sign. Contributions of thi...

Biomedical vocabularies have specific characteristics that make their lexical alignment challenging. We have built a string-based vocabulary alignment tool, AnAGram, dedicated to efficiently compare terms in the biomedical domain, and evaluate this tool’s results against an algorithm based on Jaro-Winkler’s edit-distance. AnAGram is modular, enabling us to evaluate the precision and recall of d...
