Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this study, our purpose is to recognize signs using machine learning. In order to take into account the transition motions that occur in a sign sentence, machine learning adopts the sign sentences as training data, and a trained model is created. We experimented two models: one that incorporates Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) which is a method used in speech recognition, and the other is a conformer model that uses a transformer used in natural language processing. As the result, the recognition rate for the entire test data was about 74% by the CTC method and about 32% by the Conformer method. However, the recognition results of the Conformer method showed a phenomenon as over-learning, and we estimated that it might worked properly. We will improve the Conformer method and will investigate a new algorithm that combines the Transformer with CTC.
