Abstract
The dataset of Bangladeshi sign language words (BdSLW) is rare. Though there are lots of datasets of BdSL sign alphabets, numbers, or characters, there are not enough datasets of sign words. This is the first dataset about sign words of BdSL according to the author(s) knowledge. So, this dataset is developed by collecting data from people. This is an image dataset. This dataset is a collection of 1105 images of sign words. A total of 11 sign word categories are selected which are important and daily use in our life. As this is an image dataset, so the images of sign words are taken by camera from the sign users of Bangladesh. Authors have gone to the individuals of sign users and captured images from them with their permission. Then the images are analyzed and segmented into the images which have quality such as no background, clear, bright, etc. This dataset is used for recognizing BdSL sign words.
