2013年以降に発表された手話言語処理研究をリストにしてまとめました.各論文へのリンクもありますのでサーベイなどにご活用いただければ幸いです.

こんにちは.高山です.
最近ふとしたキッカケで,近年発表された手話言語処理 (Sign language processing: SLP) の論文を収集する機会がありました.
折角なので本記事で整理して共有したいと思います.

公開されている論文に関しては,リンクも貼ってありますので,研究開発時のサーベイなどにご活用いただければ幸いです.

更新履歴 (大きな変更のみ記載しています)

  • 2024/12/03: WACV2022 の [Kan'22] を手話認識に分類していましたが,手話認識と手話翻訳双方を扱う論文でしたので,手話翻訳に移動しました.

1. 収集対象と方法

今回は,下記のような方法で論文を収集しました.

  • 対象: 画像処理および機械学習関連の国際会議
    • CVPR (Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition): コンピュータビジョンやパターン認識関連のトップ会議の一つで,毎年開催されます.
      投稿数が年々増加しており,2024年は 11,532 本の論文が投稿されて 2,719 本採択されたようです (^^;).
    • ICCV (International Conference on Computer Vision): コンピュータビジョン関連のトップ会議の一つで,隔年で開催されます.
    • ECCV (European Conference on Computer Vision): コンピュータビジョン関連のトップ会議の一つで,ICCV と交互に隔年で開催されます.
    • WACV (Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision): コンピュータビジョン関連の主要会議の一つで,2020年以降毎年開催されています.
    • BMVC (British Machine Vision Conference): コンピュータビジョン関連の主要会議の一つで毎年開催されています.
    • FG (International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition): 表情や動作認識関連の専門会議です.
      開催は不定期で,他の会議より規模も小さいですが手話言語処理関連の論文が多く投稿される傾向があります.
    • NeurIPS (Neural Information Processing Systems): 機械学習と計算神経科学関連のトップ会議の一つで,毎年開催されます.
      この会議も非常に大規模な国際会議で,2023年は 12,343 本の論文が投稿されて 3,281 本採択されたようです (^^;).
      2024年の会議はこれからですが,手話言語処理関連の投稿論文は著者らによって公開されているようです.
    • AAAI (AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence): 人工知能分野のトップ会議の一つで,AAAI (アメリカ人工知能学会: Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence) が主催しています.
  • 収集年: 2013年 - 2024年
  • 収集方法: 各会議の論文リストから,"sign" および "finger" の単語で論文タイトルを検索し,手話言語処理関連の論文を収集

この他にも論文誌や言語関連,または福祉関連の会議を調べればもっと多量に集まると思います (例えば,ACL, EMNLP, LREC など) が,収拾がつかなくなるので今回は高山の専門分野に近い学会に対象範囲を絞りました.

2. 年度別論文数の推移

2.1 国際会議別の論文数

手話言語処理分野の動向を調査するために,まず年度別採択論文数の推移を調査してみました.
図1は,国際会議別に積み上げた年度別論文数の推移を示しています.

年度毎の手話言語処理論文数を示したグラフです.国際会議別に色分けした積み上げ棒で表現しています.画像の後に説明があります.
年度別論文数 (国際会議別)

まず一見して分かる点として,2020年から採択論文数が急増しています.
これは近年のトップ会議への投稿論文数急増も大きな要因と思いますが,Camgoz氏らの2018年の論文 [Camgoz'18] が一つのキッカケになっていると考えます.

文献 [Camgoz'18] では RNN (Recurrent neural network) Encoder-Decoder ベースの手話翻訳が提案されています.
この論文で初めて深層学習ベースの手話翻訳が提案されました.

また,この論文では同時に手話認識と手話翻訳向けのデータセットが提案されています.
数日前まで公開されていたのですが,現在は見れなくなっているようです.
一時的なリンク切れかもしれないので,後日改めて確かめて見れるようでしたらお知らせします.

深層学習を用いたアプローチが当時から現在まで続く研究トレンドと合致したこと,比較的シンプルな手法でトップ会議に通過したこと,および手法を比較できるデータセットが公開されたことなどが手話言語処理研究が2020年以降伸びてきている要因になっていると思われます.

なお,2022年は論文数が減っていますが,これは ICCV と FG が同時に未開催であったことが大きいです.

2.2 分野別の論文数

次に,手話言語処理に関連する分野別に論文を整理しました.
図2は分野別に積み上げた年度別論文数の推移を示しています.

年度毎の手話言語処理論文数を示したグラフです.分野別に色分けした積み上げ棒で表現しています.画像の後に説明があります.
年度別論文数 (分野別)

積み上げ棒の色はそれぞれ,手話認識 (Sign language recognition),手話翻訳 (Sign language translation),手話生成 (Sign language production),データセット,その他に対応しています.
主要点が複数の分野にまたがる論文は,下記の基準で一方のカテゴリに分類しています.

  • 手話認識と手話翻訳: \(\rightarrow\) 手話翻訳
  • 手話認識とデータセット: \(\rightarrow\) 手話認識
  • 手話翻訳とデータセット: \(\rightarrow\) 手話翻訳

その他には指文字認識,手話検索,手話検出,アノテーション補助,各種アプリケーションなどが含まれています.
また,手話認識と手話翻訳を混同していると思われる論文は手話認識に分類しています.

各分野とも一定の数が取り組まれていますが,最近になって手話生成の論文数が伸びているのが興味深いですね.

今回は手話言語処理関連の論文を紹介しましたが,如何でしたでしょうか?
他の分野に比べればまだ追える範囲ですが,それでも結構多いですね (^^;).

途中で挫折すると思ったので (^^;),論文の要約などはしませんでしたが,簡単な紹介などは折を見て記事にできたらいいなと思っています.
今回紹介した話が,これから手話言語処理を勉強してみようとお考えの方に何か参考になれば幸いです.
