1. **[Grounding Sign Language Representation Learning in Phonology](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/vandendriessche-2026-grounding-sign-language-representation-learning/)** *(2026)* Most isolated sign language recognition (ISLR) models learn from glosses.

2. **[Scalable Video-Based Search in the VGT Dictionary](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/vandendriessche-2026-scalable-video-based-search-vgt/)** *(2026)* Searching a sign language dictionary by recording a sign has been studied in research but had not been deployed for a large vocabulary.
