To retrain or using other data set train.py

The project focuses on translating American Sign Language (ASL) fingerspelled alphabet (26 letters). I utilised transfer learning to extract features, followed by a custom classification block to classify letters. This model is then implemented in a real-time system with OpenCV - reading frames from a web camera and classifying them frame-by-frame. This repository contains the code & the corresponsing weights for classifying the American Sign Language (ASL) alphabet in real-time.
