Sign Language to Sentence Formation:A Real Time Solution for Deaf People

Communication is a basic need of every human being to exchange thoughts and interact with the society.Acute peoples usually confab through different spoken languages,whereas deaf people cannot do so.Therefore,the Sign Language(SL)is the communication medium of such people for their conversation and interaction with the society.The SL is expressed in terms of specific gesture for every word and a gesture is consisted in a sequence of performed signs.The acute people normally observe these signs to understand the difference between single and multiple gestures for singular and plural words respectively.The signs for singular words such as I,eat,drink,home are unalike the plural words as school,cars,players.A special training is required to gain the sufficient knowledge and practice so that people can differentiate and understand every gesture/sign appropriately.Innumerable researches have been performed to articulate the computer-based solution to understand the single gesture with the help of a single hand enumeration.The complete understanding of such communications are possible only with the help of this differentiation of gestures in computer-based solution of SL to cope with the real world environment.Hence,there is still a demand for specific environment to automate such a communication solution to interact with such type of special people.This research focuses on facilitating the deaf community by capturing the gestures in video format and then mapping and differentiating as single or multiple gestures used in words.Finally,these are converted into the respective words/sentences within a reasonable time.This provide a real time solution for the deaf people to communicate and interact with the society.

A Real-Time Automatic Translation of Text to Sign Language

Communication is a basic need of every human being;by this,they can learn,express their feelings and exchange their ideas,but deaf people cannot listen and speak.For communication,they use various hands gestures,also known as Sign Language(SL),which they learn from special schools.As normal people have not taken SL classes;therefore,they are unable to perform signs of daily routine sentences(e.g.,what are the specifications of this mobile phone?).A technological solution can facilitate in overcoming this communication gap by which normal people can communicate with deaf people.This paper presents an architecture for an application named Sign4PSL that translates the sentences to Pakistan Sign Language(PSL)for deaf people with visual representation using virtual signing character.This research aims to develop a generic independent application that is lightweight and reusable on any platform,including web and mobile,with an ability to perform offline text translation.The Sign4PSL relies on a knowledge base that stores both corpus of PSL Words and their coded form in the notation system.Sign4PSL takes English language text as an input,performs the translation to PSL through sign language notation and displays gestures to the user using virtual character.The system is tested on deaf students at a special school.The results have shown that the students were able to understand the story presented to them appropriately.

On Computer Implementation for Comparison of Inverse Numerical Schemes for Non-Linear Equations

In this research article,we interrogate two new modifications in inverse Weierstrass iterative method for estimating all roots of non-linear equation simultaneously.These modifications enables us to accelerate the convergence order of inverse Weierstrass method from 2 to 3.Convergence analysis proves that the orders of convergence of the two newly constructed inverse methods are 3.Using computer algebra system Mathematica,we find the lower bound of the convergence order and verify it theoretically.Dynamical planes of the inverse simultaneous methods and classical iterative methods are generated using MATLAB(R2011b),to present the global convergence properties of inverse simultaneous iterative methods as compared to classical methods.Some non-linear models are taken from Physics,Chemistry and engineering to demonstrate the performance and efficiency of the newly constructed methods.Computational CPU time,and residual graphs of the methods are provided to present the dominance behavior of our newly constructed methods as compared to existing inverse and classical simultaneous iterative methods in the literature.
