Many technological barriers must be tackled in order to provide tools in Sign Languages (SLs) in the same way as for spoken languages. For that aim, further insights must be gained into multiple disciplines, in particular motion science. More specifically, the present thesis aims to gain insights into the possibility of anonymizing the movements of a signer, in the same way as a speaker can remain anonymous by modifying specific aspects of the voice.First, this thesis sheds light on general kinematic properties of spontaneous SL in order to improve the models of natural SL. Using 3D motion recordings of multiple signers, we show that the kinematic bandwidth of spontaneous SL highly differs from that of signs made in isolation. Furthermore, ...
