Abstract :
This paper presents a robust and flexible method for the extraction of mouth corners from videophone sequences. Robustness is referred to illumination conditions, speaker variability, pose and image quality, while flexibility is given by the fuzzy environment which allows to efficiently perform the fusion of several sources of information
