AUTHOR=Bigioi Dan , Corcoran Peter TITLE=Multilingual video dubbing—a technology review and current challenges JOURNAL=Frontiers in Signal Processing VOLUME=3 YEAR=2023 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/signal-processing/articles/10.3389/frsip.2023.1230755 DOI=10.3389/frsip.2023.1230755 ISSN=2673-8198 ABSTRACT=

The proliferation of multi-lingual content on today’s streaming services has created a need for automated multi-lingual dubbing tools. In this article, current state-of-the-art approaches are discussed with reference to recent works in automatic dubbing and the closely related field of talking head generation. A taxonomy of papers within both fields is presented, and the main challenges of both speech-driven automatic dubbing, and talking head generation are discussed and outlined, together with proposals for future research to tackle these issues.
