Communication is a significant part of our lives, as it facilitates interaction among individuals. Language serves as a mode of communication for all individuals for expressing their thoughts and interpretations. However, hearing-impaired individuals often face hurdles in using spoken language. The technology for recognizing sign language made a commendable effort to improve communication levels among hearing-impaired individuals. In the current era of deep learning, which is a subset of machine learning, Convolutional Neural Network models have been developed and are now in use for gesture recognition. This recognition is based on the CNN model and VGG-16 model. It is used to hone the temporal features. The dataset used here is American Sign Language Dataset (A–Z and 0–9). The focus of this work is to develop a sign language recognition system to fulfill the need for communication of impaired people in society.

摘要

Communication is a significant part of our lives, as it facilitates interaction among individuals. Language serves as a mode of communication for all individuals for expressing their thoughts and interpretations. However, hearing-impaired individuals often face hurdles in using spoken language. The technology for recognizing sign language made a commendable effort to improve communication levels among hearing-impaired individuals. In the current era of deep learning, which is a subset of machine learning, Convolutional Neural Network models have been developed and are now in use for gesture recognition. This recognition is based on the CNN model and VGG-16 model. It is used to hone the temporal features. The dataset used here is American Sign Language Dataset (A–Z and 0–9). The focus of this work is to develop a sign language recognition system to fulfill the need for communication of impaired people in society.
