French Sign Language HD Corpus

Participant : Émilie Voisin [ correspondent ] .

Thanks the two HD-video cameras provided by a former regional grant, Émilie Voisin and Patrick Henry recorded two hours of sign language utterances from native deaf speakers. This corpus is made of translations of French texts and short comics strips (with no textual annotation) turned into sign language expressions; it also contains sign language productions by non-native speakers as well as the reactions and comments of native sign language speaker confronted to these productions. Annotation and extraction of sequences in the corpus can be performed thanks to a specific interface.
