Cognitive Development for Children’s of ”Hashu Advani School of Special Education” using Image Processing

Children who are deaf by birth usually find it difficult to speak because they cannot receive sound signals. To recover this ability, speech therapy of deaf children is practiced with the hope that they can speak normally. Lip reading technique is used to understand the speech of a person by visually interpreting the movements of the lips and the tongue with additional information provided by the training software. The front facial image of person is segmented and lip part is detected .This is an essential in many multimedia systems and real time applications such as videoconferencing, speech reading and understanding, face synthesis and facial animation through pronunciation .An efficient and effective detection of the lip contours from the human front facial image is relatively a difficult job in the field of computer vision and image processing due to the variation among human faces, lighting conditions and image acquisition conditions. The proposed method consists of three phases with the assumption of front facial colored image of human being as an input image. The schematic of 3Phase Model is, first phase deals with mouth localization and estimation, second phase concerns with the detection of lip contours and the last phase deals with passing the eclipse through the points of interest and then comparative study with manual lip detection is executed. Application using this technique can help the deaf people to communicate easily and motivate them further to apply it to education, research etc. An approach is proposed for the efficient development of talking and hearing skills with the help of cognitive analysis.
