Abstract

In this paper, to improve the gestures´ motion smoothness when synthesizing Chinese sign videos, 61 kinds of Chinese hand shape models and corresponding Chinese hand shape codes are proposed, which are used to choose transferring hand shapes by judging the fingers´ bending degrees and relationships between the joined sign gestures with obvious motion changes. Besides, we also construct an extending sign video database to synthesize any sentence in the field of domain weather report based on joining video clips.
