Abstract: | For deaf persons to have ready access to information and communication technologies (ICTs), the latter must be usable in sign
language (SL), i.e., include interlanguage interfaces. Such applications will be accepted by deaf users if they are reliable
and respectful of SL specificities—use of space and iconicity as the structuring principles of the language. Before developing
ICT applications, it is necessary to model these features, both to enable analysis of SL videos and to generate SL messages
by means of signing avatars. This paper presents a signing space model, implemented within a context of automatic analysis
and automatic generation, which are currently under development.
