چکیده

This contribution is about the method for automatic lips reading from the video picture. The results of this automatic method are used for the next audio-visual speech processing and recognition. The simple image processing method for finding of the human face in the video picture is presented here. The lips are found from the marked human face in the region of interest, where the lips are, with the help of the mathematical gradient method. This gradient method is based on the image histogram. The histogram is computed from the colour value of the region of interest. The first results for visual speech recognition of isolated words are presented in conclusion. The method described here was used for face and lips detection to help speech recognition.

3d Lip-tracking for Audio-visual Speech Recognition in Real Applications

In this paper, we present a solution to the problem of tracking 3D information about the shape of lips from 2D picture of a speaker. We focus on lip-tracking of audio-visual speech recordings from the Czech in-vehicle audio-visual speech corpus (CIVAVC). The corpus consists of 4 h 40 min records of audiovisual speech of driver recorded in a car during driving in an usual traffic. In real condit...

Resource aware design of a deep convolutional-recurrent neural network for speech recognition through audio-visual sensor fusion

Today’s Automatic Speech Recognition systems only rely on acoustic signals and often don’t perform well under noisy conditions. Performing multi-modal speech recognition processing acoustic speech signals and lip-reading video simultaneously significantly enhances the performance of such systems, especially in noisy environments. This work presents the design of such an audio-visual system for ...
