LipNet: End-to-End Sentence-level Lipreading


This is a Gluon implementation of LipNet: End-to-End Sentence-level Lipreading

net_structure

sample output

Requirements

  • Python 3.6.4
  • MXNet 1.3.0
  • Required disk space: 35 GB
pip install -r requirements.txt

The Data

  • The GRID audiovisual sentence corpus (http://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/gridcorpus/)
    • GRID is a large multi-talker audiovisual sentence corpus to support joint computational-behavioral studies in speech perception. In brief, the corpus consists of high-quality audio and video (facial) recordings of 1000 sentences spoken by each of 34 talkers (18 male, 16 female). Sentences are of the form "put red at G9 now". The corpus, together with transcriptions, is freely available for research use.
  • Video: (normal)(480 M each)
    • Each movie has one sentence consist of 6 words.
  • Align: word alignments (190 K each)
    • One align has 6 words. Each word has start time and end time. But this tutorial needs just sentence because of using ctc-loss.

Pretrained model

You can train the model yourself in the following sections, you can test a pretrained model's inference, or resume training from the model checkpoint. To work with the provided pretrained model, first download it, then run one of the provided Python scripts for inference (infer.py) or training (main.py).

python infer.py model_path='checkpoint/epoches_81_loss_15.7157'
  • Resume training with the following:
python main.py model_path='checkpoint/epoches_81_loss_15.7157'

Prepare the Data

You can prepare the data yourself, or you can download preprocessed data.

Option 1 - Download the preprocessed data

There are two download routes provided for the preprocessed data.

Download and untar the data

To download tar zipped files by link, download the following files and extract in a folder called data in the root of this example folder. You should have the following structure:

/lipnet/data/align
/lipnet/data/datasets

Use AWS CLI to sync the data

To get the folders and files all unzipped with AWS CLI, can use the following command. This will provide the folder structure for you. Run this command from /lipnet/:

 aws s3 sync s3://mxnet-public/lipnet/data .

Option 2 (part 1)- Download the raw dataset

  • Outputs
    • The Total Movies(mp4): 16GB
    • The Total Aligns(text): 134MB
  • Arguments
    • src_path : Path for videos (default='./data/mp4s/')
    • align_path : Path for aligns (default='./data/')
    • n_process : num of process (default=1)
cd ./utils && python download_data.py --n_process=$(nproc)

Option 2 (part 2) Preprocess the raw dataset: Extracting the mouth images from a video and save it

Preprocess (preprocess_data.py)

  • If there is no landmark, it download automatically.
  • Using Face Landmark Detection, It extract the mouth from a video.
  • example:

  • video: ./data/mp4s/s2/bbbf7p.mpg

  • align(target): ./data/align/s2/bbbf7p.align : 'sil bin blue by f seven please sil'

  • Video to the images (75 Frames)

Frame 0 Frame 1 ... Frame 74
...
  • Extract the mouth from images
Frame 0 Frame 1 ... Frame 74
...
  • Save the result images into tgt_path.

How to run the preprocess script

  • Arguments

    • src_path : Path for videos (default='./data/mp4s/')
    • tgt_path : Path for preprocessed images (default='./data/datasets/')
    • n_process : num of process (default=1)
  • Outputs

    • The Total Images(png): 19GB
  • Elapsed time

    • About 54 Hours using 1 process
    • If you use the multi-processes, you can finish the number of processes faster.
      • e.g) 9 hours using 6 processes

You can run the preprocessing with just one processor, but this will take a long time (>48 hours). To use all of the available processors, use the following command:

cd ./utils && python preprocess_data.py --n_process=$(nproc)

Output: Data structure of the preprocessed data

The training data folder should look like :
<train_data_root>
                |--datasets
                        |--s1
                           |--bbir7s
                               |--mouth_000.png
                               |--mouth_001.png
                                   ...
                           |--bgaa8p
                               |--mouth_000.png
                               |--mouth_001.png
                                  ...
                        |--s2
                            ...
                 |--align
                         |--bw1d8a.align
                         |--bggzzs.align
                             ...


Training

After you have acquired the preprocessed data you are ready to train the lipnet model.

  • According to LipNet: End-to-End Sentence-level Lipreading, four (S1, S2, S20, S22) of the 34 subjects are used for evaluation. The other subjects are used for training.

  • To use the multi-gpu, it is recommended to make the batch size $(num_gpus) times larger.

    • e.g) 1-gpu and 128 batch_size > 2-gpus 256 batch_size
  • arguments

    • batch_size : Define batch size (default=64)
    • epochs : Define total epochs (default=100)
    • image_path : Path for lip image files (default='./data/datasets/')
    • align_path : Path for align files (default='./data/align/')
    • dr_rate : Dropout rate(default=0.5)
    • num_gpus : Num of gpus (if num_gpus is 0, then use cpu) (default=1)
    • num_workers : Num of workers when generating data (default=0)
    • model_path : Path of pretrained model (default=None)
python main.py

Test Environment

  • 72 CPU cores

  • 1 GPU (NVIDIA Tesla V100 SXM2 32 GB)

  • 128 Batch Size

    • It takes over 24 hours (60 epochs) to get some good results.
