Query: Modeling Global Body Configurations in American Sign Language   American Sign Language (ASL) is the fourth most commonly used language in the
United States and is the language most commonly used by Deaf people in the
United States and the English-speaking regions of Canada. Unfortunately, until
recently, ASL received little research. This is due, in part, to its delayed
recognition as a language until William C. Stokoe's publication in 1960.
Limited data has been a long-standing obstacle to ASL research and
computational modeling. The lack of large-scale datasets has prohibited many
modern machine-learning techniques, such as Neural Machine Translation, from
being applied to ASL. In addition, the modality required to capture sign
language (i.e. video) is complex in natural settings (as one must deal with
background noise, motion blur, and the curse of dimensionality). Finally, when
compared with spoken languages, such as English, there has been limited
research conducted into the linguistics of ASL.
  We realize a simplified version of Liddell and Johnson's Movement-Hold (MH)
Model using a Probabilistic Graphical Model (PGM). We trained our model on
ASLing, a dataset collected from three fluent ASL signers. We evaluate our PGM
against other models to determine its ability to model ASL. Finally, we
interpret various aspects of the PGM and draw conclusions about ASL phonetics.
