ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for an audiovisual continuous speech recognition (AVCSR) system using a coupled hidden Markov model (CHMM) are described herein. In one aspect, an exemplary process includes receiving an audio data stream and a video data stream, and performing continuous speech recognition based on the audio and video data streams using a plurality of hidden Markov models (HMMs), a node of each of the HMMs at a time slot being subject to one or more nodes of related HMMs at a preceding time slot. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
