Audio-only based wake word spotting (WWS) is challenging under noisy conditions due to the environmental interference in signal transmission. In this paper, we investigate on designing a compact audio-visual WWS system by utilizing the visual information to alleviate the degradation. Specifically, in order to use visual information, we first encode the detected lips to fixed-size vectors with MobileNet and concatenate them with acoustic features followed by the fusion network for WWS. However, the audio-visual model based on neural network requires a large footprint and a high computational complexity. To meet the application requirements, we introduce a neural network pruning strategy via the lottery ticket hypothesis in an iterative fine-tuning manner (LTH-IF), to the single-modal and multi-modal models, respectively. Tested on our in-house corpus for audio-visual WWS in a home TV scene, the proposed audiovisual system achieves significant performance improvements over the single-modality (audio-only or video-only) system under different noisy conditions. Moreover, LTH-IF pruning can largely reduce the network parameters and computations with no degradation of WWS performance, leading to a potential product solution for the TV wake-up scenario.
