Computers Shown to Read Lips Better Than (Some) Humans (medgadget.com)

I thought that the title was "Computers Shown to Read Lisp Better Than (Some) Humans" and I got really excited that we have computers that could program them selves...


I read it the same way, but thought, "well duh."


I would be interested in seeing that training video. While I don't have any kind of hearing problems, I've always wanted to read lips better. I have some slight ability to read lips, but it largely requires me to be able to hear the talker at least a little.

I would also be interested in seeing a little more about how the software works. Was this some sort of machine learning, or was it something else?
