dc.description.abstractDeaf and mute people face various difficulties in daily activities due to the communication barrier caused by the lack of Sign Language knowledge in the society. Many researches have attempted to mitigate this barrier using Computer Vision based techniques to interpret signs and express them in natural language, empowering deaf and mute people to communicate with hearing people easily. However, most of such researches focus only on interpreting static signs and understanding dynamic signs is not well explored. Understanding dynamic visual content (videos) and translating them into natural language is a challenging problem. Further, because of the differences in sign languages, a system developed for one sign language cannot be directly used to understand another sign language, e.g., a system developed for American Sign Language cannot be used to interpret Sri Lankan Sign Language. In this study, we develop a system called Utalk to interpret static as well as dynamic signs expressed in Sri Lankan Sign Language. The proposed system utilizes Computer Vision and Machine Learning techniques to interpret sings performed by deaf and mute people. Utalk is a mobile application, hence it is non-intrusive and cost-effective. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the our system using a newly collected dataset.en_US
