General Policies
Collaboration
Students are permitted and encouraged to collaborate on homework
assignments.
All graded work, however, must be the original effort of the student
submitting the paper.
Homework
Homework will be collected at the beginning of each class
period. Note: Late homework will be accepted provided the reason for
the delay is coordinated with the instructor within 2 days of its
assignment. Homework solutions will be discussed in class.
Make-up Exams
Make-up exams will not be given unless detailed written clarification
accompanied by documentation for the absence is provided. If this
information is not provided an F grade will be given for the exam. The
location and time for a make-up exam will be decided by the instructor.
Also, students are expected to be in class and on-time for every class.

Importance of Interaction
Multimedia is more than the
combination of text, audio, video and
data
Interaction among media is important
Consider a poorly dubbed movie

Lip Synchronization
Applications
In VTC (video teleconferencing) where video
frame is dropped (low bandwidth requirement)
but audio must still be continuous
In non-real-time use such as dubbing in studio
where recorded voice full of background noise

Classification-Based Conversion
Approaches for Lip Tracking
Two-step process
Classification of acoustic signal using VQ
(vector quantization), HMM (hidden Markov
model) and NN (neural network)
Mapping of the acoustic classes into
corresponding visual outputs, then averaged to
get centroid
Shortcomings
Error resulting from averaging visual vector to
get visual centroid
Not a continuous mapping finite output levels
