Overview

Lip reading, also known as speech reading, involves understanding spoken words by visually interpreting the movements of the lips, face, and tongue. This project aims to provide a deep learning solution for lip reading, enabling the transcription of silent videos into text.

Features

• Character-Based Vocabulary: Uses a set of characters including alphabets, punctuation, and numbers.
• Deep Learning Model: Utilizes Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for feature extraction and sequence modeling.
• TensorFlow Implementation: Built using TensorFlow and Keras, providing easy integration and deployment.

Requirements

• Python 3.6 or higher
• TensorFlow 2.x
• NumPy
• OpenCV
