DESCRIPTION:*Abstract*: Decades of research in acoustic speech recognition
  have led to systems that we use in our everyday life. However\, even the 
 most advanced speech recognition systems fail in the presence of noise. Th
 e degraded performance can be (partially) addressed by introducing visual 
 speech information. In this talk\, we will see how deep learning has made 
 this possible and also present our works in visual speech recognition (lip
 -reading).\n\n*Bio*: Pingchuan Ma is a fourth-year Ph.D. student in the In
 telligent Behaviour Understanding Group (IBUG) at Imperial College London\
 , advised by Prof. Maja Pantic and Dr. Stavros Petridis. Before that\, He 
 received an MSc degree in Machine Learning from Imperial College London in
  2017 and received a BSc degree in Automation from Beihang University in 2
 015. He was a research intern at Facebook AI Applied Research (FAIAR) in 2
 021.
