Summary
Under the sponsorship of Dr. Naomi Caselli at Boston University, this postdoctoral fellowship award supports an early career scientist using automated computer vision techniques to document language production patterns in the visuo-spatial modality. This project extracts measurements of movement features such as speed, space, and energy from video data and compares patterns between different groups of signers. In the process, the researcher will develop applications of new machine learning tools. The resources invested in this work lay the groundwork for efficient and accurate automated gestur
