Training of Speechreading for Severely Hearing-Impaired Persons by Human and Computer

This paper describes evaluation results for a software programme that is intended to be used as a training-aid for lipreading in German. Tests were carried out in schools for hearing-impaired children in Germany which indicate that the ability to lipread increases significantly already after use of the software during a short period of time.
