Title
A Qualitative and Quantitative Characterisation of Style in Sign Language Gestures
Abstract
This paper addresses the identification and representation of the variations induced by style for the synthesis of realistic and convincing expressive sign language gesture sequences. A qualitative and quantitative comparison of styled gesture sequences is made. This comparison leads to the identification of temporal, spatial, and stuctural processes that are described in a theoritical model of sign language phonology. Insights raised by this study are then considered in the more general framework of gesture synthesis in order to enhance existing gesture specification systems.
