Literature Review on Machine Translation Systems for Sign Language Generation

Abstract

Every human being has the fundamental right to equal opportunity. The world's deaf society, like every other person, deserves access to all forms of information. Gestures have long served as a mode of communication for people hard of hearing worldwide. There should be a way for hearing and deaf people to communicate directly in order for this to happen. A human translator can help in this situation but this will violate the privacy of the conversation. In this twenty-first century, it has become imperative to automate this communication so that deaf people are not reliant on human translators. This paper deals with the Sign Language generation systems based on different machine translation techniques.
