VSP-LLM (Visual Speech Processing incorporated with LLMs)

This is the PyTorch code for Where Visual Speech Meets Language: VSP-LLM Framework for Efficient and Context-Aware Visual Speech Processing. This code is developed on the code of AV-HuBERT.

Introduction

We propose a novel framework, namely Visual Speech Processing incorporated with LLMs (VSP-LLM), to maximize the context modeling ability by bringing the overwhelming power of LLMs. Specifically, VSP-LLM is designed to perform multi-tasks of visual speech recognition and translation, where the given instructions control the type of task. The input video is mapped to the input latent space of a LLM by employing a self-supervised visual speech model. Focused on the fact that there is redundant information in input frames, we propose a novel deduplication method that reduces the embedded visual features by employing visual speech units. Through the proposed deduplication and Low Rank Adaptors (LoRA), VSP-LLM can be trained in a computationally efficient manner.

Try our VSP-LLM demo using colab

Preparartion

conda create -n vsp-llm python=3.9 -y
conda activate vsp-llm
git clone https://github.com/Sally-SH/VSP-LLM.git
cd VSP-LLM
pip install -r requirements.txt

• Download AV-HuBERT pre-trained model AV-HuBERT Large (LSR3 + VoxCeleb2) from here.
• Download LLaMA2-7B from here.

Data preprocessing

Follow Auto-AVSR preperation to preprocess the LRS3 dataset.
Then, follow AV-HuBERT preperation from step 3 to create manifest of LRS3 dataset.

Generate visual speech unit and cluster counts file

Follow the steps in clustering (pre-train only) to create:

• {train,valid}.km frame-aligned pseudo label files. The label_rate is the same as the feature frame rate used for clustering, which is 25Hz for AV-HuBERT features by default.
