Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We work on automatic Japanese sign Language (JSL) recognition using hidden Markov models (HMMs). In general, sign language consists of manual signals and non-manual signals. In this study, we focused on non-manual signal and propose a method for recognize major four kind of non-manual signal using HMM. We used a depth sensor Microsoft Kinect v2 to obtain feature parameter of head motion. We conducted a fundamental experiment to show the effectiveness of our method.
