Includes bibliographical references. Filipino Sign Language (FSL) is the primary communication method for the Deaf com- munity in the Philippines, however limited knowledge of the language among the hearing population creates significant communication barriers. This study addresses this issue by developing a real-time FSL-to-text translation system. While deep learning has shown po- tential in gesture recognition, the lack of high-quality, large-scale FSL datasets hinders progress in this field. To bridge this gap, the study aimed to create a culturally authen- tic FSL dataset, build an accurate recognition model, and develop a system to deal with the current gaps in FSL research. A dataset of 846 video clips featuring 118 FSL ges- tures was created in collaboration with the Deaf community, ensuring linguistic accuracy. The system employed a Faster R-CNN model for gesture recognition, using a server-client architecture for real-time processing. Each frame of the video were extracted using Con- volutional Neural Networks, while Faster R-CNN and Gated Recurrent Units classified the signs. The resulting system achieved 90% accuracy with strong precision, recall, and F1-scores, demonstrating its potential to address communication challenges for the Deaf community.
