This paper presents the use of lip-reading and Thai speech to control electronic devices in a vehicle. The Viola-Jones algorithm detects the face of the driver and the constrained local model detects their mouth area before three lips features are extracted. Hidden Markov models are utilized to recognize speech and lip movement, with the lip movement recognizer offering better accuracy than the speech recognizer in a noisy environment. Three fusion methods are utilized to combine lipmovement and speech. We propose the use of vehicle speed for selecting the appropriate recognizer for different speech signalto-noise ratios.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
