Abstract

Lip contour detection and extraction is the most important criterion for computerized speech reading. In this paper, lip contour extraction algorithm is proposed based on active contour model across the discrete Hartley transform (DHT). This approach has efficiently solved the problem of real-time lip detection. Most of the existing lip extraction methods impose several restrictions, but this algorithm tries to approach an unconstrained system. This method works good in case of uneven illumination, effects of teeth and tongue, rotation, deformation. This proposed algorithm experiments on large number of lip images and gives the satisfactory performance than other existing lip extraction methods.
