Abstract

A scheme for machine translation of texts between sign language and phonic language is proposed in the paper. The approach is based on the creation of substitution grammar of the sign language through the realization of semantic markers in the database of the Polish language and the application of graph structures implemented in the Prolog language. A modular architecture of the translation system implemented using this approach is described in the paper. Communication and interoperation between the system’s modules is explained. Details of the principles of operation of the translation system are discussed. As a proof of concept an example of the translation process is presented.
