    Extractions: Home Welcome Visitor Information Academic Programs ... Site Map Central Washington University The Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute CHCI is a sanctuary for four adult chimpanzees who communicate with humans and each other using American Sign Language (ASL). The mission of CHCI is to protect and care for these Chimpanzees, educate the public on the endangered status of free-living chimpanzees, help improve the lives of all captive chimpanzees through ongoing research, and serve as a humane research facility for students. CHCI is home for these chimpanzees and is not open on a daily basis for entertainment purposes. CHCI believes that education is one of the most effective ways to save the chimpanzees and therefore offers one hour workshops (Chimposiums) to the public on weekends, as well as other, more formal educational programs. If you would like to make reservations for a Chimposium or lend financial support to this family of chimpanzees by becoming a Friend of Washoe, call (509) 963-2244.

    http://www.worldpath.net/~minstrel/hobosign.htm
    
    Extractions: There may be one or more signs that give the same message or, at times, there may be slightly different meanings for a sign. This can be accounted for by the fact that they may have been used in far different sections of the country. Not all Hoboes travelled the whole country as some Harvest Hoboes, for example, would just work up and down the west or east coast. Just as a spoken language has it's own dialects and words for different areas a sign language would be the same. Most of the signs shown here however are, or were, used throughout the whole country. I have seen examlpes where some of the signs shown here were used in foriegn countries and had the same meanings so, although the signs are called "Hobo Signs", their origin could well have been from a past era. More Hobo/Tramp Signs With so much Hobo and tramp history unrecorded all we can do is draw the best conclusions from what we are able to put together from bits and pieces of old documents that can still be found so, from my own experience, and studies, I believe these are tramp signs. Notice, none of them mentions working for money or handouts.

    Machine Gesture and sign language Recognition. Machine recognition. Online resources and researchers in gesture and sign language recognition.  
    http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~waleed/gsl-rec/
    
    Extractions: Machine gesture and sign language recognition is, as the name suggests, about recognition of gestures and/or sign language using computers. A number of hardware techniques are used for gathering information about body positioning; typically either image-based (using cameras, moving lights etc) or device-based (using instrumented gloves, styli, position trackers etc.), although hybrids are beginning to come about. However, getting the data is only the first step. The second step, that of recognising the sign or gesture once it has been captured is much more challenging, especially in a continuous stream. In fact currently, this is the focus of the research. This page tries to include links to online information on this subject on the 'Net, and to stay up-to-date as far as conferences and so on are concerned. If you have any suggestions, corrections or additions, please don't hesitate to mail me. 2 October 2002 Added Information about Ipke's great list of Gesture Conferences 21 November 2001 Added Richard Bowden to the list of researchers in gesture recognition.

72. Lesson Tutor: American Sign Language (ASL) Alphabet Flash Cards And More!
    Activities for learning the sign language alphabet by using American sign language Flashcards.  
    http://www.lessontutor.com/ees_asl_flashcards.html
    
    Extractions: Make your own or purchase a set of ASL alphabet flash cards. For example, we have a double set of alphabet cards available through the LT Store , that you can download, and print immediately. We would recommend any number of the following options to preserve the life of the cards. 1. If your printer has the capability to pull through cardstock (60 lb), use it! This prevents seeing the images through the paper. 2. If you or your children are the least bit crafty, print out the cards, trim excess paper, paste onto cereal box cardboard, then cut along the lines. 3. For a set of cards impervious to spilled pop and dirty fingers: print on cardstock, cut out each card individually, then laminate them, leaving a wide border to ensure a secure seal between each. Office supply stores (Kinkos, Staples, etc.) will provide this service on a per page basis. Amazon.com sells a variety of mini laminators that may just be the handiest purchase you make this year (right after the hot glue gun or the can of spray adhesive!)

79. American Sign Language
    Introduction to American sign language. Research has identified the following different types of variation in American sign language Regional Variation.  
    http://www.signmedia.com/info/asl.htm
    
    Extractions: Linguistic research during the past thirty years has demonstrated that American Sign Language (and indeed any of the world's indigenous sign languages) meets all of the requirements for human languages - it is a rule-governed, grammatical symbol system that changes over time and that members of a community share. Indeed, the linguistic research in this area is so overwhelming that the question of whether signed languages are languages is rarely debated anymore. This page will offer a brief overview of how individual signs are formed and of certain sentence types in American Sign Language. Just as spoken words are formed from "parts" (e.g. vowel sounds and consonant sounds) so are the signs in any sign language. But the "parts" of signs are not sounds. Rather the "parts" of a sign are specific handshapes, movements of the hand, and specific locations of the hand. For example, the Dictionary of American Sign Language (the first such dictionary based on linguistic principles) lists 18-19 handshapes, 24 movements, and 12 locations. You can find illustrations of each these handshapes, movements, and locations in the video and text resources listed below. But, you might wonder how is it that linguists were able to identify these specific handshapes, movements, and locations. With spoken languages, you can identify meaningful sound units by finding minimal pairs. These are words that have different meanings and that differ in only one sound. Thus, that one sound must be meaningful and unique because if you change it, you produce a new word. For example, just by changing the first sound of the word hit you produce words such as bit, fit, kit, lit, mit, pit, quit, sit, wit, zit. The same procedure of contrastive analysis has been applied to American Sign Language to identify the meaningful handshapes, movements, and locations.
