Convolutional Neural Network-Powered AI Workflow Automation for Sign Language Interpretation in Vehicular Edge-Cloud Systems with Microservices
Main Article Content
Abstract
The integration of inclusive communication technologies into vehicular systems is critical for enhancing accessibility and safety in next-generation transportation. This paper presents a convolutional neural network (CNN)-powered AI workflow automation framework for real-time sign language interpretation within vehicular edge-cloud ecosystems. The proposed architecture leverages CNNs to recognize and interpret hand gestures and sign language patterns, enabling seamless communication between drivers, passengers, and vehicular systems. Microservices-based design and containerization ensure modularity, scalability, and efficient deployment across heterogeneous edge and cloud environments. AI-driven workflow automation dynamically optimizes data flows, minimizing latency and ensuring reliable interpretation even under high vehicular mobility and variable network conditions. Experimental results demonstrate that the framework achieves high recognition accuracy, low latency, and robust performance, contributing to accessible, intelligent, and adaptive vehicular communication infrastructures. This approach highlights the potential of combining CNNs, microservices, and edge-cloud architectures to support inclusivity in smart mobility ecosystems.
