- Title: Sign Language Production: A Review
- Authors: Razieh Rastgoo, Kourosh Kiani, Sergio Escalera, Mohammad Sabokrou
- Abstract summary: Sign Language is the dominant yet non-primary form of communication language used in the deaf and hearing-impaired community.
To make an easy and mutual communication between the hearing-impaired and the hearing communities, building a robust system capable of translating the spoken language into sign language is fundamental.
To this end, sign language recognition and production are two necessary parts for making such a two-way system.

- Abstract: Sign Language is the dominant yet non-primary form of communication language
used in the deaf and hearing-impaired community. To make an easy and mutual
communication between the hearing-impaired and the hearing communities,
building a robust system capable of translating the spoken language into sign
language and vice versa is fundamental. To this end, sign language recognition
and production are two necessary parts for making such a two-way system. Sign
language recognition and production need to cope with some critical challenges.
In this survey, we review recent advances in Sign Language Production (SLP) and
related areas using deep learning. This survey aims to briefly summarize recent
achievements in SLP, discussing their advantages, limitations, and future
directions of research.

Sign language serves as the primary meaning of communication for the deaf-mute community.
To facilitate communication between the deaf-mute and hearing people, a series of sign language understanding (SLU) tasks have been studied.
These tasks investigate sign language topics from diverse perspectives and raise challenges in learning effective representation of sign language videos.

spoken language models [56.93604813379634]
Self-supervised techniques for learning speech representations have been shown to develop linguistic competence from exposure to speech without the need for human labels.
We propose a language-acquisition-friendly benchmark to probe spoken language models at the lexical and syntactic levels.
We highlight two exciting challenges that need to be addressed for further progress: bridging the gap between text and speech and between clean speech and in-the-wild speech.
