Abstract
The visual motion of the mouth and the corresponding audio data generated when a person speaks are highly correlated. This fact has been exploited for lip/speechreading and for improving speech recognition. We describe a method of automatically detecting a talking person (both spatially and temporally) using video and audio data from a single microphone. The audio-visual correlation is learned using a time delayed neural network, which is then used to perform a spatio-temporal search for a speaking person. Applications include video conferencing, video indexing, and improving human computer interaction (HCI). An example HCI application is provided. 1. INTRODUCTION The visual motion of a speaker's mouth is highly correlated with the audio data generated from the voicebox and mouth [5]. This fact has been exploited for lip/speechreading (e.g, [14] [10]) and for combined audio-visual speech recognition (e.g., [3]). We utilize this correlation to detect speakers using video and audio inp...
