@jiang2021sign propose a novel Skeleton Aware Multi-modal Framework with a Global Ensemble Model (GEM) for isolated SLR (SAM-SLR-v2) to learn and fuse multimodal feature representations. Specifically, they use a Sign Language Graph Convolution Network (SL-GCN) to model the embedded dynamics of skeleton keypoints and a Separable Spatial-Temporal Convolution Network (SSTCN) to exploit skeleton features. The proposed late-fusion GEM fuses the skeleton-based predictions with other RGB and depth-based modalities to provide global information and make an accurate SLR prediction. @jiao2023cosign explore co-occurence signals in skeleton data to better exploit the knowledge of each signal for continuous SLR. Specifically, they use Group-specific GCN to abstract skeleton features from co-occurence signals (Body, Hand, Mouth and Hand) and introduce complementary regularization to ensure consistency between predictions based on two complementary subsets of signals. Additionally, they propose a two-stream framework to fuse static and dynamic information. The model demonstrates competitive performance cpmpared to video-to-gloss methods on the RWTH-PHOENIX-Weather-2014 [@koller2015ContinuousSLR], RWTH-PHOENIX-Weather-2014T [@cihan2018neural] and CSL-Daily [@dataset:Zhou2021_SignBackTranslation_CSLDaily] datasets.

Instead, they propose a bidirectional skeleton-based graph convolutional network framework with linguistically motivated parameters and attention to the start and end frames of signs. They cooperatively use forward and backward data streams, including various sub-streams, as input. They also use pre-training to leverage transfer learning.
