Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have made two types of databases, one of which has 2,600 well-formed syllables of Japanese Sign Language(JSL), and the other of which 600 ill-formed syllables of JSL. In the databases, syllables are recorded as strings so syllable-constituting elements. Using the two types of databases thus made both for the inputs to machine learning and for linguistic phonotactic analyses, we have found some combinations of syllable-constituting elements that cause JSL well-formed and ill-formed syllables. We have also found what types of elements are involved in the syllable formation of JSL and also a prototypical combination of syllable-constituting elements for the type III syllable, in which one hand moves while the other hand is still.
