Abstract

A study is presented to determine the relative importance of different visual features for speech recognition which includes pixel-based, model-based, contour-based and physical features. Analysis to determine the discriminability of features is per- formed through F-ratio and J-measures for both static and tem- poral derivatives, the results of which were found to correlate highly with speech recognition accuracy (r = 0.97). Princi- pal component analysis is then used to combine all visual fea- tures into a single feature vector, of which further analysis is performed on the resulting basis functions. An optimal feature vector is obtained which outperforms the best individual feature (AAM) with 93.5 % word accuracy.
