In this paper, the WaveNet with cross-attention is proposed for Audio-Visual Automatic Speech Recognition (AV-ASR) to address multimodal feature fusion and frame alignment problems between two data streams. WaveNet is usually used for speech generation and speech recognition, however, in this paper, we extent it to audiovisual speech recognition, and the cross-attention mechanism is introduced into different places of WaveNet for feature fusion. The proposed cross-attention mechanism tries to explore the correlated frames of visual feature to the acoustic feature frame. The experimental results show that the WaveNet with cross-attention can reduce the Tibetan single syllable error about 4.5% and English word error about 39.8% relative to the audio-only speech recognition, and reduce Tibetan single syllable error about 35.1% and English word error about 21.6% relative to the conventional feature concatenation method for AV-ASR.
