Abstract

This paper presents a speaker-independent audio-visual digit recognition system that utilizes speech and visual lip signals. The extracted visual features are based on line-motion estimation obtained from video sequences with low resolution (128 × 128 pixels) to increase the robustness of audio recognition. The core experiments investigate lip motion biometrics as stand-alone as well as merged modality in speech recognition system. It uses Support Vector Machines, showing favourable experimental results with digit recognition featuring 83% to 100% on the XM2VTS database depending on the amount of available visual information.
