摘要：Sign language is the key for communication between deaf people. The significance of sign language is accentuated by various research activities and the technical aspects will definitely improve the communication needs. General view based sign language recognition systems extract manual parameters by a single camera view because it seems to be user friendly and hardware complexity; however it needs a high accuracy classifier for classification and recognition purpose. The decision making of the system in this work employs Indian sign language datasets and the performance evaluation of the system is compared by deploying the K-NN, Naïve Bayes and PNN classifiers. Classification using an instance-based classifier can be a simple matter of locating the instance space and labelling the unknown instance with the same class label as that of the located (known) neighbour. Classifier always tries to improve the classification rate by pushing classifiers into an optimised structure. In each hand posture, a measure of properties like area, mean intensity, centroid, perimeter and diameter are taken; the classifier then uses these properties to determine the sign in different angles. They estimate the probability that a sign belongs to each of the target classes that is fixed. The impact of such study may reflect the exploration for using such algorithms in other similar applications such as text classification and the development of automated systems.
