Researchers have developed a new framework to improve sign language models by focusing on spatial indexing, a crucial but often overlooked aspect of sign language. This approach decomposes the resolution of spatial references into index detection and discourse entity linking, aiming to better capture pointing gestures used for co-reference. The proposed method establishes a baseline for index-aware sign language modeling and can augment existing models to improve their understanding of non-lexical constructions. AI
