Virtual Talking Head [Review]

---

Abstract

Animation could play a potential role in improving the human learning process, especially in promoting deep understanding of the subject matter (Ahmah Zamzuri, 2013). Using more than one modality in learning enables the creation of referential connections, which facilitates learning (Zhu, Fung & Wang, 2012). The speech mapping concept has become more influential in the ways that visual modeling is done since the early 1990s. It is viewed as a useful framework for pronunciation training that provides a visual display of a spectrum of sounds produced by a particular speaker. It enables better understanding of the link between speech production and speech perception (Abry & Badin, 1996).
