Abstract
Systems and methods are described for improving endpoint detection of a voice query submitted by a user. In some implementations, a synchronized video data and audio data is received. A sequence of frames of the video data that includes images corresponding to lip movement on a face is determined. The audio data is endpointed based on first audio data that corresponds to a first frame of the sequence of frames and second audio data that corresponds to a last frame of the sequence of frames. A transcription of the endpointed audio data is generated by an automated speech recognizer. The generated transcription is then provided for output.
