Abstract | Automating lip reading has attracted a lot of research attention in the last several years and there are a wide variety of applications where automated lip reading could be implemented, including forensic closed-circuit television footage or to assist those with language impairment. An obstacle for both professional lip-readers and automated lip-reading systems is not only the situation of different sounding words being confused because they produce identical lip movements, but also that word with similar lip movements can easily be confused because they have sequences of visemes that are similar. This paper proposes a library and corpus called Visemes2Vec for learning the embeddings of viseme sequences as a contribution and is to the best of our knowledge the first attempt at proposing library for visualising words that have similar lip movements. Visemes2Vec is analogous to Word2Vec which groups together that are semantically similar in meaning or Chars2Vec which groups together words that share common characters. |
