Abstract
This paper presents a method to extract isolated signs from continuous sign language videos. We use sequences that approximately contain the sign that we are interested in and align the sequences to find the exact start and end frames. We compare different feature extraction methods, different alignment methods, and assess the performance of our system on a database from Turkish sign language.
