Query: Weighted delay-and-sum beamforming guided by visual tracking for
  human-robot interaction   This paper describes the integration of weighted delay-and-sum beamforming
with speech source localization using image processing and robot head visual
servoing for source tracking. We take into consideration the fact that the
directivity gain provided by the beamforming depends on the angular distance
between its main lobe and the main response axis of the microphone array. A
visual servoing scheme is used to reduce the angular distance between the
center of the video frame of a robot camera and a target object. Additionally,
the beamforming strategy presented combines two information sources: the
direction of the target object obtained with image processing and the audio
signals provided by a microphone array. These sources of information were
integrated by making use of a weighted delay-and-sum beamforming method.
Experiments were carried out with a real mobile robotic testbed built with a
PR2 robot. Static and dynamic robot head as well as the use of one and two
external noise sources were considered. The results presented here show that
the appropriate integration of visual source tracking with visual servoing and
a beamforming method can lead to a reduction in WER as high as 34% compared to
beamforming alone.
