I saw this and thought that someone should present about Stefan's Mundbilder too! I don't do the kind of research it seems like they are focusing on (corpus, etc) or else I'd try to get involved in this :) On Thu, Jan 9, 2014 at 7:30 PM, Maria Galea <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hi friends on the List > > the LREC seem to be focussing on non-manual notations this year and are > calling for papers... > > I immediately thought of the work of Stefan..(the mouth-pattern-writing of > DGS).. > Why don't you try to show the success of this system Stefan, that > originated from SW but has been adapted by you - or if you have no time for > it, as I've heard you are a busy teacher why not try to team up with > someone and write the paper together? > > Or anyone else naturally who has used SW for non-manual notation- I know > there are a few interested in avatar technology and SW, etc... > warmest, > Maria > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Alison Vere <[log in to unmask]> > Date: 8 January 2014 11:04 > Subject: Fwd: [SLLS] CfP: 6th LREC Workshop on the Representation and > Processing of Sign Languages: Beyond the Manual Channel > To: Marie Alexander <[log in to unmask]>, Maria Galea < > [log in to unmask]>, maria galea <[log in to unmask]> > > > > FYI. > > Cheers, > Alison > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Onno Crasborn <[log in to unmask]> > Date: 8 January 2014 10:51 > Subject: [SLLS] CfP: 6th LREC Workshop on the Representation and > Processing of Sign Languages: Beyond the Manual Channel > To: [log in to unmask] > > > CALL FOR PAPERS > 6th Workshop on the Representation and Processing of Sign > Languages: Beyond the Manual Channel > > Abstracts are invited for a full day workshop on those aspects of sign > language resources that go beyond the manual channels, to take place > following the 2014 LREC conference on Saturday, May 31st, 2014. > > Non-manual features like facial expressions, mouth actions, head and body > movements have all received extensive attention in the linguistic > literature. > Recent technological developments allow sign language researchers to > create relatively large video corpora of sign language use that were > unimaginable ten years ago.
