Whole-Body Pose Estimation Dataset for German Sign Language (DGS) Finger Alphabet

Dataset Description

This dataset contains 5,000 annotated images for fine-tuning whole-body pose estimation models. The images depict individuals performing signs from the German Sign Language (Deutsche Gebärdensprache) finger alphabet.

The frames were extracted and annotated from the video dataset available at:
[https://huggingface.co/datasets/fhswf/dgs-pose]

Key Features

  • Size: 5,000 annotated images
  • Task: Whole-body pose estimation (including hands, face, and body keypoints)
  • Content: Isolated signs from the DGS finger alphabet
  • License: MIT
  • Format: Images with corresponding pose annotation files (typically JSON or similar)

Intended Use

This dataset is designed for:

  • Fine-tuning pose estimation models (e.g. MMPose) on sign language data
  • Research in sign language recognition and translation
  • Developing assistive technologies for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community
  • Training models to understand fine-grained hand shapes and full-body gestures

Dataset Structure

The dataset is organized as follows:

dataset/
├── images/ # Folder containing all 5,000 image files
├── annotations/ # Corresponding pose keypoint annotations with test/train split
└── README.md # This file

Annotation Format

Annotations typically include:

  • Body keypoints (e.g., COCO or Human3.6M format)
  • Hand keypoints (21 points per hand)
  • Facial landmarks
  • Bounding boxes for persons

Specific annotation format details are provided in the annotations/ directory.

Limitations

  • The dataset focuses on isolated signs, not continuous sign language sentences.
  • Variations in lighting, background, and subject appearance are present but not systematically controlled.
  • The dataset is specific to the German finger alphabet; models may not generalize directly to other sign languages without adaptation.

Acknowledgments

This dataset was created using material from the DGS Pose Dataset (https://huggingface.co/datasets/fhswf/dgs-pose) by FH Südwestfalen. We thank the original creators for making their sign language data available.
