Goal

Create a complete learning artifact.

Learn

  • The final deliverable is a clear map from signer video to reviewed model output.
  • Your map should include capture, consent, frame extraction, pose/keypoints, gloss or labels, metadata, NPZ storage, curation, train/validation/test splits, training, evaluation, human review, privacy, and limitations.
  • A strong final map is honest. It shows where people make decisions and where the system can fail.

Example

  • Final pipeline: consent -> capture checklist -> raw video archive -> trim clips -> extract frames -> run pose -> visualize pose -> annotate gloss -> create NPZ -> write metadata -> QA decision -> split dataset -> train baseline -> validate -> inspect outputs -> Deaf/fluent review -> publish limits.
  • Final note: This pipeline supports research and learning. It does not replace qualified interpreters or guarantee full ASL translation.

Practice

  1. Build a one-page SignLLM pipeline plan for public learners.
  2. Include one example metadata record, one QA checklist, one evaluation rubric, and one limitation statement.

Checkpoint

Before moving on

You can teach someone else how SignLLM development works at a practical level.

Deaf-first note

Deaf-first note

The final map should make human language review visible, not hidden behind the model box.
