| Challenge: | Existing work on natural language processing has shown promising improvements in text classification, translation and generation in widely used spoken languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a new Indian Sign Language corpus for word-level recognition using videos . they propose CISLR model that leverages resource rich American Sign Language to learn generalized features for improving Indian Sign language predictions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves word recognition in Indian Sign Language using video . it leverages resource rich American Sign Language to learn generalized features . |

| Challenge: | a recent study shows that training of ASR models with little to no supervised data is challenging. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework to train streaming Transformer-Transducer models with pseudo-labeled (PL) speech from foundational speech models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework can be trained from scratch with pseudo-labeled speech from foundational speech models (FSMs) the proposed framework is validated on 6 languages from CommonVoice and proposes multiple heuristics to filter out hallucinated PLs. |
