## Abstract (arXiv)

After the interviews, it has been comprehended that speech-impaired individuals who use sign languages have difficulty communicating with other people who do not know sign language. Due to the communication problems, the sense of independence of speech-impaired individuals could be damaged and lead them to socialize less with society. To contribute to the development of technologies, that can reduce the communication problems of speech-impaired persons, a new dataset was presented with this paper. The dataset was created by processing American Sign Language-based photographs collected from 173 volunteers, published as 27 Class Sign Language Dataset on the Kaggle Datasets web page.
