The unique research area of audio-visual speech recognition has attracted much interest in recent years as visual information about lip dynamics has been shown to improve the performance of automatic speech recognition systems, especially in noisy environments.""Visual Speech Recognition: Lip Segmentation and Mapping"" presents an up-to-date account of research done in the areas of lip segmentation, visual speech recognition, and speaker identification and verification. A useful reference for researchers working in this field, this book contains the latest research results from renowned experts with in-depth discussion on topics such as visual speaker authentication, lip modeling, and systematic evaluation of lip features.

This book provides a panoramic overview on wireless communication network technologies and its evolution, namely cellular mobile networks (especially 5G), Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT).With rich experiences in teaching and scientific research, the renowned authors selectively analyze several key technologies that restrict the performance of wireless communication and computer networks.For easy reading, each chapter is illustrated in somewhat the style of lesson plan.The useful reference text will benefit both undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of wireless communication, computer networks, electronic engineering, automatic control, etc.
