ABSTRACT “A” in sign language can be converted into the English letter
“A” in text or speech[4][5].
Communication is important for everyone, but people with
hearing or speech impairments face challenges in
communicating with others. People who are mute or deaf rely
on visual communication, like sign language, which can be
difficult for others to understand. To make communication
easier between people with disabilities and the general public, a
system that translates hand gestures into text and speech is
needed [1].

This project focuses on creating a real-time sign language


detection system using computer vision and machine learning.
Sign language is a natural way for people to communicate, but
many people don’t know it. Our system uses deep learning
models, like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), to
recognize hand gestures from American Sign Language (ASL).
The system captures hand gestures using a webcam, with
MediaPipe to detect key points and OpenCV to process the
images. The system then matches the gestures to corresponding
words in ASL [2].

We trained the system using different machine learning


algorithms, such as Random Forest, Support Vector Machines
(SVM), and k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). The best model was
chosen based on performance measures like F1-score, precision,
and recall. The trained model recognizes gestures in real-time,
converts them into text, and then turns that text [3][4]. This
system helps break down communication barriers and makes it
easier for people with hearing and speech impairments to
communicate.

• Word-based signs: Specific signs that represent
particular words or meanings, and
• Non-manual features: Gestures like facial
expressions and body movements.
Developing a sign language translator is difficult because
signs may look different depending on the person signing and
the angle from which they are viewed. This project aims to
create a static sign language translator using Convolutional
Neural Networks (CNNs) and Long Sort Term
Memory(LSTM) that can work on low-resource devices like
embedded systems or web apps.

Fig. 2. Convolution Neural Networks • 1.3 Objectives


The goal of this project is to help improve automatic sign
language recognition and translation into text or speech. Our
project focuses on recognizing static hand gestures for the 26
English alphabets (A-Z) and the 10 digits (0-9) using Deep
Neural Networks (DNN).
The main objectives are:
• Media Pipe employs a pre-trained CNN to detect and
extract hand landmarks to recognize hand gestures
and match them with English alphabets and numbers.
• Training the model with LSTM and our custom
model.
• Test the model in real-time using a live camera feed.

Advancements in machine learning and computational


intelligence have increased interest in sign language
recognition (SLR). A study of 649 articles from 2001 to 2021
shows that machine learning technologies for SLR have been
growing steadily over the past 12 years. Research has focused
on various stages of vision-based SLR, including image
acquisition, segmentation, feature extraction, and
classification. Despite the success of devices like Data glove,
Kinect, and cameras, challenges such as high costs, low
resolution, and complex backgrounds still affect accuracy.

3.1 Dataset
We have used multiple datasets and trained multiple
models to achieve good accuracy.

Alphabet The data is a collection of images of the alphabet
from the American Sign Language, separated into 26 folders
that represent the various classes. The training dataset consists
of 520 images which are 300x360 pixels. There are 26 classes
of which 26 are English alphabets A-Z
3.1.2 Sign Language Gesture Images Dataset
Data is collected from the system’s in-built camera using
the OpenCV [8] library. A total of 30 images sequences are
captured for each gesture out of which 30 frames are extracted
from each of the photos. The environment for further

300x360 pixels, so altogether there are 29 gestures which
means there 520 images for all gestures. Fig 5 landmark Extraction

3.5 Data Preparation and Label Creation


So after the completion of the data collection process, the
key points extracted from the data are then structured using
data preprocessing. The data is structured in such a way that
all the arrays of key points of each gesture are saved as one
numpy array (X), which is then mapped to another numpy
array of labels (Y). We then use the to_categorical function to
convert Y into a binary class matrix, such as [1,0,0....] for
hello, [0,1,0,0....] for thanks, and [0,0,1,0,0,.....] for "I love

• Abstract
Communication is vital for human interaction, but individuals with hearing or
speech impairments face challenges in communicating with the general public. Sign
language serves as a bridge for communication, but it is often unfamiliar to those who
do not use it daily.
This project focuses on developing a real-time sign language detection system
using computer vision and machine learning. The system captures hand gestures via
a webcam, processes them using frameworks like MediaPipe and OpenCV, and
classifies them using deep learning algorithms such as Convolutional Neural
Networks (CNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks.
The system is trained on datasets including American Sign Language (ASL)
alphabet images and achieves high accuracy in real-time detection of static gestures
for alphabets (A-Z) and digits (0-9). This project aims to bridge the communication
gap, enabling seamless interaction for individuals with hearing and speech
impairments.
Keywords: Sign language, detection, recognition, computer vision, image
classification, deep learning, real-time systems.

• 1. Introduction
Sign language is a visual means of communication used predominantly by
individuals with hearing or speech impairments. It involves hand gestures, facial
expressions, and body movements to convey meaning. However, most people are
unfamiliar with sign language, leading to communication barriers.
The goal of this project is to develop a system capable of real-time recognition of
sign language using machine learning. By employing deep learning techniques like
CNNs and LSTMs, the system interprets static hand gestures and translates them into
text, making communication more accessible.

• 2. Problem Statement
Sign language recognition is a challenging task due to the variation in hand
gestures, lighting conditions, and backgrounds. Existing methods often require
specialized equipment, making them inaccessible to the general public.
Challenges:
• Variations in individual signing styles.

• Recognition of both static and dynamic gestures.

• Integration into low-resource environments like embedded systems or mobile


applications.
This project addresses these challenges by using robust machine learning
techniques and readily available hardware, such as webcams.

• 3. Objectives
The primary objectives of this project are:
1. Develop a system to recognize static hand gestures for alphabets (A-Z) and
digits (0-9).
2. Utilize MediaPipe for hand landmark detection.
3. Train deep learning models (CNN and LSTM) for gesture classification.
4. Enable real-time detection using a live camera feed.
5. Evaluate the system using performance metrics such as accuracy, precision,
recall, and F1-score.

• 4. Literature Review

This paper emphasizes the use of LSTM and GRU for Indian Sign Language
recognition, achieving improved accuracy through model optimization.
2. Advancements in Sign Language Recognition
CNNs and RNNs have demonstrated high accuracy in recognizing static and
sequential gestures. Future systems aim to include lip and facial features for
enhanced recognition.
3. Machine Learning Methods for Sign Language Recognition
A review of vision-based SLR systems highlights the growing use of CNNs
and wearable devices. Challenges include complex backgrounds and low-
resolution images.
5. Methodology
5.1 Dataset
• ASL Alphabet Dataset: Contains 520 images of hand gestures representing 26
English alphabets (A-Z).
• Custom Dataset: Captured using OpenCV, comprising 30 images per gesture
for 26 alphabets and 10 digits.
5.2 Data Preprocessing
• Convert images from BGR to RGB format.

• Resize images to a uniform dimension of 300x360 pixels.

• Noise removal and normalization.

5.3 Hand Landmark Detection


Utilized MediaPipe to extract 21 3D hand landmarks for each frame. The
BlazePalm detector isolates the palm, reducing computational overhead.
5.4 Gesture Recognition
• Keypoints from hand landmarks are fed into deep learning models:

o CNN for feature extraction.

o LSTM for temporal sequence analysis.

• The model is trained using labeled datasets and tested in real-time.

6. Results
The proposed system achieved the following results:
Metric value
Accuracy 95.5%
precision 96.8%
Recall 97.2%
F1-Score 98.0%

The model successfully translated static gestures into text in real-time,


demonstrating robustness against variations in lighting and background.
7. Conclusion
This project demonstrates the potential of machine learning in enhancing
communication for individuals with hearing and speech impairments. The system
effectively recognizes and translates static gestures, providing a cost-effective and
accessible solution.
Future work includes:
• Expanding the system to dynamic gestures.

• Supporting multiple sign languages.

• Integrating facial expression recognition for enhanced accuracy.
