Resource information

The Corpus of Finland-Swedish Sign Language (CFSTS) is a systematic collection of materials in Finland-Swedish Sign Language, originally collected in the Corpus project of Finland’s Sign Languages (CFINSL). The resource contains video files, recorded from up to six different camera angles, annotations of the videos in ELAN format, and metadata about the signers. The corpus is divided into two subcorpora, one including elicited narratives (cfsts-elicit) and the other including signed conversations (cfsts-conv) from 12 signers. The elicited narratives are publicly available, whereas the conversations are available under a restricted license.

Background information about the signers:
