| Abstract | We compare two different groups of visual features that can be used in addition to audio to improve automatic speech recognition (ASR), high- and low-level visual features. Facial animation parameters (FAPs), supported by the MPEG-4 standard for the visual representation of speech, are used as high-level visual features. Principal component analysis (PCA) based projection weights of the intensity images of the mouth area are used as low-level visual features. PCA is also applied on the FAPs. We develop an audio-visual ASR (AV-ASR) system and compare its performance for two different visual feature groups, following two approaches. The first approach assumes the same dimensionality for both high- and low-level visual features, while, in the second approach, the percentage of statistical variance described by the visual features used is the same. Multi-stream hidden Markov models (HMMs) and a late integration approach are used to integrate audio and visual information and perform continuous AV-ASR experiments. Experiments were performed at various SNRs (0-30 dB) with additive white Gaussian noise on a relatively large vocabulary database (approximately 1000 words). Conclusions are drawn on the trade off between the dimensionality of the visual features and the amount of speechreading information contained in them and its influence on the AV-ASR performance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
