Abstract
In addition to the framework of probabilistic correspondence mapping on audiovisual speaker modeling, we also explore the correspondence problems with different constraints. Frequency domain correspondence between speakers is established via dynamic programming for speaker normalization in speech recognition tasks. The adjacent constraints in frequency domain actually help to stabilize the algorithm, similar to the dynamic time warping techniques. We also explore the correspondence problem given the manifold structure of different pose face images. It turns out that the manifold structure is very useful to build a good correspondence across different subjects. For audiovisual fusion, a new fusion scheme factorizes audio and visual features into correlated and uncorrelated ones. The correlated features are considered to be the correspondence between two modalities.
