Özet

Sign language is the primary tool of communication for deaf and mute people. It employs hand gestures, facial expressions, and body movements to state a word or a phrase. Like spoken languages, sign languages also vary among the regions and the cultures. The aim of this study is to implement a machine translation system to convert Turkish spoken language into Turkish Sign Language (TID). The advantages of rule-based and statistical machine translation techniques are combined into a hybrid translation system.
