Toward Deployable Bangla Sign Language Recognition with Expert-Validated Data and a Lightweight Attention-Based Model

Deaf and hard-of-hearing people in Bangladesh communicate mainly through Bangla Sign Language (BdSL). Automatic BdSL recognition on personal devices could widen access to education and services.
