Abstract

Sign Language Recognition (SLR) system is a method which allow deaf people to communicate with society. In this study, Real-Time Sign Language recognition system was proposed by using the surface Electromyography (sEMG). To this purpose, sEMG data acquired from subject right forearm for all twenty six American Sign Language gestures. Raw sEMG data was filtered, feature extracted and fed into classification. Support Vector Machine (SVM) with one vs. all approach was used for multi class classification. The experiment result of offline system is reaching a recognition rate of 91.% accuracy and real-time system has a recognition rate of 82.3% accuracy. The results of the proposed system shows that sEMG signal can be used for Real-Time SLR systems.
