Audio-Visual Speech Synchrony Measure for Talking-Face Identity Verification
Hervé Bredin, Gérard Chollet · 2007
We investigate the use of audio-visual speech synchrony measure in the framework of identity verification based on talking faces. Two synchrony measures based on canonical correlation analysis and co-inertia analysis respectively are introduced and their performances are evaluated on the specific task of detecting synchronized and not-synchronized audio-visual speech sequences. The notion of high-effort impostor attacks is also introduced as a dangerous threat for current biometric system based on speaker verification and face recognition. A novel biometric modality based on synchrony measures is introduced in order to improve the overall performance of identity verification, and more specifically its robustness to replay attacks.
