Abstract

The extraction of lip contour features is difficult and computationally expensive. In this paper we explore the desirable alternative of estimating the contour from area features (ie. mouth grey~scale image) directly via a non—linear stochastic mapping technique. Results are presented on our own speaker dependent database to demonstrate this method and explain why it performs better than previous techniques.
