Abstract

We discuss the problems of translating English to Sign Language in the ViSiCAST project. An overview of the language-processing component of an English-Text to Sign-Languages translation system is described focusing upon the inherent problems of knowledge elicitation of sign language grammar and its implementation within a HPSG framework.
