Implementasi Deep Learning CNN untuk Menerjemahkan Sistem Isyarat Bahasa Indonesia (SIBI) ke Teks

Communication is a fundamental aspect of human life. However, individuals with hearing and speech impairments often face barriers in communicating with the general public. The Indonesian Sign System (SIBI) serves as a communication solution for the deaf and speech-impaired community in Indonesia, yet public understanding of SIBI remains limited. To address this issue, this study aims to develop an automatic translation model from SIBI sign language into Indonesian text by utilizing Deep Learning technology, specifically the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm. CNN was chosen for its ability to effectively recognize visual patterns, making it suitable for processing hand gesture images in sign language. This research involved collecting and classifying a dataset of hand images based on the alphabet or words in SIBI, which were then used to train the CNN model. The designed CNN model was built to accurately classify hand signs and translate them into Indonesian text. The results of this study have the potential to serve as a supportive solution for inclusive communication between the deaf community and the wider public, and can be further developed for contextual sentence translation.
