Bengali Hand Sign Gestures Recognition using Convolutional Neural Network

Sign language and spoken language, both of them are generated from the same human brain but their linguistic and physical transmission varies greatly from each other. The deaf people have a hearing disability and the dumb or mute people have a speaking disability except other things are normal for them. Persons having hearing and speaking impairment are often incapable of communicating their statements appropriately. So they use sign language to communicate with each other and with the rest of the world. As a result, sign language recognition (SLR) has become one of the most interesting topics in computer vision and machine learning recently. Researchers are trying to improve this language to use in a large-scale though it is not an…
