Deep Learning Technology to Recognize American Sign Language Alphabet.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Historically, individuals with hearing impairments have faced neglect, lacking the necessary tools to facilitate effective communication. However, advancements in modern technology have paved the way for the development of various tools and software aimed at improving the quality of life for hearing-disabled individuals. This research paper presents a comprehensive study employing five distinct deep learning models to recognize hand gestures for the American Sign Language (ASL) alphabet. The primary objective of this study was to leverage contemporary technology to bridge the communication gap between hearing-impaired individuals and individuals with no hearing impairment. The models utilized in this research include AlexNet, ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, ResNet-50, and VisionTransformer were trained and tested using an extensive dataset comprising over 87,000 images of the ASL alphabet hand gestures. Numerous experiments were conducted, involving modifications to the architectural design parameters of the models to obtain maximum recognition accuracy. The experimental results of our study revealed that ResNet-50 achieved an exceptional accuracy rate of 99.98%, the highest among all models. EfficientNet attained an accuracy rate of 99.95%, ConvNeXt achieved 99.51% accuracy, AlexNet attained 99.50% accuracy, while VisionTransformer yielded the lowest accuracy of 88.59%.
