SL Corpus

[Inmaculada C. Baez]

Dear networkers,
We are a group of researchers at the University of Vigo (Spain) working
in the creation of a linguistic Spanish Sign Language Corpus.
Our main goal is to store a body of natural discourse in SSL having
native speakers as informants. The corpus will be representative of
social variation, with special attention to differences in sex and age
groups. Currently we are particularly engaged with the recording of
interviews where both the informant and the interviewer are deaf.
We would like to have information about similar projects. Could anyone
help us?
We are also interested in compilation and automatic analysis (the Uvigo
SL Corpus is still in video-format, but ready to be computerized).
Thanking you in advance.
Best wishes,
Carmen Cabeza & Inmaculada Báez
