Dicta-Sign-LSF-v2
The Dicta-Sign-LSF-v2 is an extended version of the LSFFrench Sign Language sub-corpus of the Dicta-Sign Corpus providing primary data (videos), elicitation data, annotation data and a related annotation guide, as well as preprocessed signer data including facial pose, upper body pose and hand shape estimates. It contains nine dialogue sessions with 18 signers of LSFFrench Sign Language covering the topic of travel. The data was annotated in more detail and a convolutional-recurrent learning network was trained on the data, drawing on a compact and generalisable modeling of the signers to provide a baseline for the recognition of lexical signs and non-lexical structures. Dicta-Sign-LSF-v2 was built at the Laboratoire d'informatique pour la mécanique et les sciences de l'ingénieur (LIMSI) in 2020.
