Project data set of ShowTell – Showing and telling in Finnish Sign Language

Abstract

The research objective of the proposed project is to investigate the relationship between constructed action (showing) and regular telling (telling) from the points of view of language use, kinematics and brain-based cognitive processing of meaning in FinSL. For this purpose, the project exploits Corpus FinSL data, Motion Capture (MoCap) data and EEG data, respectively. The Corpus FinSL data and MoCap data have been collected and will be further processed and analysed in the project. The EEG data will be both collected and processed during the project.
