Abstract

The research in this paper focuses on the detection of Indonesian Sign Language System (SIBI) letters using the YOLOv8 object detection model. The study compares two datasets, one with mono-background (a simple, uniform background) and another with multi-background (complex and varied backgrounds). The research aims to evaluate how the complexity of image backgrounds affects the performance of the YOLOv8 model in detecting SIBI letters This study uses a dataset consisting of 24 SIBI letters (excluding J and Z due to the complexity of their gestures), sourced from Mendeley. The dataset was processed with and without data augmentation (rotation, brightness adjustments, blur, and noise) to test the model under various conditions. Four models were trained and tested: one using mono-background images, another using augmented mono-background images, a third using multi-background images, and a final model trained on augmented multi-background images. The results showed that the YOLOv8 model performed best with the multi-background dataset, achieving a precision of 0.995, recall of 1.000, F1 score of 0.997, and mAP50 of 0.994Adding to the model made it better at generalizing, but it took longer to train. The study finds that multi-background datasets with augmentation make the model much better at finding SIBI letters in real-world settings. This makes it a promising tool for projects that aim to improve communication for deaf people in Indonesia. The study suggests that more research should be done on augmentation techniques and bigger datasets to make detection more accurate.
