In this project you are going to make important contributions to our open-source libraries for sign language processing.

We have a library dedicated to manipulating pose estimation data: https://github.com/AmitMY/pose-format and a sign language datasets library: https://github.com/sign-language-processing/datasets. Both of them need more features, documentation and polish.

It is up to you to decide which contributions to make. Examples:

• Add documentation (docstrings, higher-level explanations, tutorials, example notebooks)
• Extend unit tests
• Add new features, finish open pull requests
• Add pose estimation to datasets where we currently only have the videos themselves
• Add new datasets

• You are currently studying Computational Linguistics or Computer Science.
• Strong Python programming skills
• Experience with git workflows
• You have an interest in, and willingness to learn more about, sign languages and sign language processing.
