中国手语信息处理述评

A Survey of Chinese Sign Language Processing

为了能够有效地对中国手语进行信息处理,需要针对中国手语的特性提出相应的信息处理方案。该文根据国内外的研究进展情况,从基于规则和基于语料库的角度,讨论了中国手语信息处理过程中遇到的有关问题,并提出可借鉴的中国手语信息处理技术,同时从中国手语自身的词法、句法出发,参考国外手语语言学的最新研究成果,讨论了中国手语信息处理中有关信息表征、理解、生成等问题。最后指出未来手语的信息处理将会更多地建立在跨学科、多模式的基础之上,该项研究将有力地促进信息无障碍技术的发展。

For the computer processing of Chinese sign language, the characteristics of the sign language should be consideredt. This paper discusses the problems related to Chinese sign language information processing and proposes the processing technology according to the domestic and foreign research progress. Based on the lexical and syntactic characteristics of Chinese sign language and the latest research results in foreign Sign Linguistics, this paper puts forward a solution to the processing of Chinese sign language. We suggest that the future study of sign linguistics will rely more on the interdisciplinary study and multi-mode approach, and its progress will promote the technology of information accessibility.
