Abstract

Sign language recognition can be treated as one of the efficient solutions for disabled people to communicate with others. It helps them to convey the required data by the use of sign language with no issues. The latest developments in computer vision and image processing techniques can be accurately utilized for the sign recognition process by disabled people. American Sign Language (ASL) detection was challenging because of the enhancing intraclass similarity and higher complexity. This article develops a new Bayesian Optimization with Deep Learning-Driven Hand Gesture Recognition Based Sign Language Communication (BODL-HGRSLC) for Disabled People. The BODL-HGRSLC technique aims to recognize the hand gestures for disabled people’s communication. The presented BODL-HGRSLC technique integrates the concepts of computer vision (CV) and DL models. In the presented BODL-HGRSLC technique, a deep convolutional neural network-based residual network (ResNet) model is applied for feature extraction. Besides, the presented BODL-HGRSLC model uses Bayesian optimization for the hyperparameter tuning process. At last, a bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU) model is exploited for the HGR procedure. A wide range of experiments was conducted to demonstrate the enhanced performance of the presented BODL-HGRSLC model. The comprehensive comparison study reported the improvements of the BODL-HGRSLC model over other DL models with maximum accuracy of 99.75%.
