    Abstract

    The use of Deep Neural Network (DNN) models for Visual Speech Recognition (VSR) has recently been gaining traction. The use of more complex DNN models have greatly increased accuracy performance but have the downside of very poor explainability. There is still much room for improvement in using DNN models for VSR in comparison to audio-only speech recognition. Being able to explain the model and its predictions would be beneficial for improving its performance, and the explainability of predictions are important in VSR in order to further improve the model design and handling of real-world data. This paper highlights various deep learning techniques for visual speech recognition and reports on experiments using feature visualisation techniques for these models, successfully demonstrating that CNNs are self-learning features consistent with what we would expect.
