Competition Launch: Google – American Sign Language Fingerspelling Recognition

[Kaggle] Hi {NAME}, Revolutionary technology is often not accessible to the more than 70 million Deaf people around the world who use sign language to communicate. Machine learning could make text entry interfaces to technology more accessible with better fingerspelling recognition. The goal of this competition is to detect and translate American Sign Language (ASL) fingerspelling into text. You will create a model trained on the largest dataset of its kind, released specifically for this competition. [Fingerspelling Competition]( Total Prizes: $200,000 Entry Deadline: August 3, 2023 [Learn More]( Your participation in this competition could help provide Deaf and Hard of Hearing users the option to fingerspell words instead of using a keyboard. Automatic detection of fingerspelling could enable new types of applications that enable faster, smoother communication.
