Sentence Generation for Indian Sign Language Using NLP

Abstract

Nowadays the interaction among deaf and mute people and normal people is difficult, because normal people scuffle to understand the sense of the gestures. The deaf and dumb people find problem in sentence formation and grammatical correction. To alleviate the issues faced by these people, an automatic sign language sentence generation approach is propounded. In this project, Natural Language Processing (NLP) based methods are used. NLP is a powerful tool for translation in the human language and also responsible for the formation of meaningful sentences from sign language symbols which is also understood by the normal person. In this system, both conventional NLP methods and Deep learning NLP methods are used for sentence generation. The efficiency of both the methods are compared. The generated sentence is displayed in the android application as an output. This system aims to connect the gap in the interaction among the deaf and dumb people and the normal people.
