Improving speaker-independent visual language identification using deep neural networks with training batch augmentation by Jacob L. Newman

“…We describe a novel approach to the construction of training batches, in which samples are duplicated, then reversed in time to form a distractor class. This method encourages the neural networks to learn the discriminative temporal features of language rather than the identity of individual speakers.The maximum accuracy obtained across all three language experiments was 84.64%, demonstrating that the system can distinguish languages to a good degree, from just 10 s of visual speech. …”
