AUTOMATIC SIGN LANGUAGE INTERPRETING

1 . A method comprising:

obtaining a first video data including sign language originating at a first device during a communication session;

obtaining, during the communication session, one or more features from the first video data;

determining one or more matching functions from the one or more features;

determining, using a language model, a first set of one or more symbols from the one or more matching functions; and

determining a second set of one or more symbols from the first set of one or more symbols.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first set of one or more symbols includes gloss.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second set of one or more symbols includes script.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the language model uses gloss.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining a second set of one or more symbols from the first set of one or more symbols includes language translation from gloss to script.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing the second set of one or more symbols for presentation on a display during the communication session.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating a first audio from the second set of one or more symbols and

providing the first audio for presentation during the communication session.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the language model includes a statistical language model.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the language model uses at least one neural network.

10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining a third set of one or more symbols from the second set of one or more symbols.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein determining a third set of one or more symbols from the second set of one or more symbols includes language translation from a first spoken language to a second spoken language.

12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

generating a second audio from the third set of one or more symbols; and

providing the second audio for presentation during the communication session.

13 . A method comprising:

obtaining a first video data including sign language originating at a first device during a communication session;

obtaining, during the communication session, one or more features from the first video data;

determining one or more matching functions from the one or more features using a first model, wherein the first model is associated with a second part of a first sign and a first part of a second sign; and

determining a first set of one or more symbols from the one or more matching functions.

14 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising translating the first set of one or more symbols into a second set of one or more symbols.

15 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the first set of one or more symbols includes gloss and the second set of one or more symbols includes script.

16 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

generating a first audio from the second set of one or more symbols; and

providing the first audio for presentation during the communication session.

17 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising determining one or more matching functions from the one or more features using a second model of a third sign.

18 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the second part of the first sign includes a first one or more states, the first part of the second sign includes a second one or more states, and the third sign includes a third one or more states.

19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein:

at least one state in the first part of the second sign is tied to at least one state in the third sign.

20 . The method of claim 18 , wherein:

at least one state in the first part of the second sign and at least one state in the third sign are the same state.
