An Extensible, Kinematically-Based Gesture Annotation Scheme
Martell_Chapter_1.pdf (200.2Kb)Abstract
Annotated corpora have played a critical role in speech and natural language
research; and, there is an increasing interest in corpora-based research in sign
language and gesture as well. We present a non-semantic, geometrically-based
annotation scheme, FORM, which allows an annotator to capture the kinematic
information in a gesture just from videos of speakers. In addition, FORM stores
this gestural information in Annotation Graph format—allowing for easy integration
of gesture information with other types of communication information,
e.g., discourse structure, parts of speech, intonation information, etc
