SignMatch: Matching Dictionary Signs to Continuous Sign Language Video
The objective of this paper is to match dictionary sign videos to corresponding signs in continuous signing videos, where a match is defined by the visual similarity alone - the handshape and motion relative to the body. To achieve this, we learn a prototype-structured sign embedding space from continuous video annotated with signs, where each learnable prototype corresponds to a sign class. Isolated dictionary videos are then mapped into this sign space, enabling the matching between dictionary exemplars and continuous sign instances. This design supports direct dictionary-guided sign matching through embedding similarity and naturally extends to unseen signs using only dictionary exempl...
