AI 中文摘要

大多数手语理解系统在孤立手势层面运行,限制了自然交流中的实用性。本文以实时部署为主要目标研究句子级手语翻译,而非提出新翻译架构。在因计算和存储限制而均匀采样的9872个How2Sign示例子集上,使用QLoRA微调SHuBERT-ByT5翻译堆栈,同时冻结SHuBERT。模型验证BLEU为16.7,测试集BLEU为15.9,BLEURT为44.7。主要贡献是硬件感知流系统,Raspberry Pi 4B参考客户端提供相机捕获、本地文本显示和语音输出,计算密集型感知和翻译在CPU/GPU后端运行。捕获协议与客户端无关,相同后端可服务多种设备。通过多种技术,完整9872示例工作子集的最终响应平均延迟从1.873秒降至1.354秒(降低27.71%),P95延迟从2.919秒降至2.130秒(降低27.03%)。

英文摘要

Most sign language understanding systems operate at the level of isolated signs, limiting their usefulness in natural communication. We study sentence-level sign language translation (SLT) with the primary goal of real-time deployment rather than proposing a new translation architecture. We fine-tune a SHuBERT-ByT5 translation stack on a uniformly sampled 9,872-example subset of How2Sign, selected because of compute and storage constraints, using QLoRA while keeping SHuBERT frozen. The model obtains a validation BLEU of 16.7 and, on the test split, BLEU 15.9 and BLEURT 44.7. The main contribution is a hardware-aware streaming system: a Raspberry Pi 4B reference client provides camera capture, local text display, and speech output, while compute-intensive perception and translation run on a CPU/GPU backend. The capture protocol remains client-agnostic, so the same backend can serve a browser, phone, or laptop. Chunked ingestion, bounded queues, parallelized perception, temporal reordering, and a sentence-boundary state machine reduce mean post-finalization response latency from 1.873 to 1.354 seconds (27.71%) and P95 latency from 2.919 to 2.130 seconds (27.03%) over the complete 9,872-example working subset.
