A Wireframe-Based Approach for Classifying and Acquiring Proficiency in the American Sign Language (Student Abstract)
Dylan Pallickara, Sarath Sreedharan
Abstract
We describe our methodology for classifying ASL (American Sign Language) gestures. Rather than operate directly on raw images of hand gestures, we extract coor-dinates and render wireframes from individual images to construct a curated training dataset. This dataset is then used in a classifier that is memory efficient and provides effective performance (94% accuracy). Because we con-struct wireframes that contain information about several angles in the joints that comprise hands, our methodolo-gy is amenable to training those interested in learning ASL by identifying targeted errors in their hand gestures.
