摘要： Voice activity detection using multiple microphones can be based on a relationship between an energy at each of a speech reference microphone and a noise reference microphone. The energy output from each of the speech reference microphone and the noise reference microphone can be determined. A speech to noise energy ratio can be determined and compared to a predetermined voice activity threshold. In another embodiment, the absolute value of the autocorrelation of the speech and noise reference signals are determined and a ratio based on autocorrelation values is determined. Ratios that exceed the predetermined threshold can indicate the presence of a voice signal. The speech and noise energies or autocorrelations can be determined using a weighted average or over a discrete frame size.

摘要： Streaming voice signals, such as might be received at a contact center or similar operation, are analyzed to detect the occurrence of one or more unprompted, predetermined utterances. The predetermined utterances preferably constitute a vocabulary of words and/or phrases having particular meaning within the context in which they are uttered. Detection of one or more of the predetermined utterances during a call causes a determination of response-determinative significance of the detected utterance(s). Based on the response-determinative significance of the detected utterance(s), a responsive action may be further determined. Additionally, long term storage of the call corresponding to the detected utterance may also be initiated. Conversely, calls in which no predetermined utterances are detected may be deleted from short term storage. In this manner, the present invention simplifies the storage requirements for contact centers and provides the opportunity to improve caller experiences by providing shorter reaction times to potentially problematic situations.
摘要翻译：分析诸如可能在联络中心处接收的流式语音信号或类似的操作，以检测一个或多个未发音的预定话语的发生。预定的话语优选地构成在它们被发音的上下文中具有特定含义的单词和/或短语的词汇表。在通话期间检测一个或多个预定话语导致确定检测到的话语的响应确定性重要性。基于检测到的话语的响应决定性意义，可以进一步确定响应动作。此外，也可以启动对应于检测到的话语的呼叫的长期存储。相反，可以从短期存储中删除未检测到预定话语的呼叫。以这种方式，本发明简化了联络中心的存储要求，并提供了通过为潜在的有问题的情况提供更短的反应时间来改善呼叫者体验的机会。

摘要： A system for voice detection includes a feature value calculation unit that calculates a feature value from an input signal sliced on a per frame basis, a provisional voice/non-voice decision unit that provisionally decides a voiced interval and a non-voiced interval from the feature value calculated on a per frame basis, and a voice/non-voice decision unit that determines a voiced interval duration threshold value or a non-voiced interval duration threshold value, using a ratio of the feature value found on a per frame basis to a threshold value for the feature value and that re-decides the voiced interval and the non-voiced interval, using the voiced interval duration threshold value determined and the non-voiced interval duration threshold value determined. By determining the voiced interval duration threshold value and the non-voiced interval duration threshold value, using the feature value found on a per frame basis and the threshold value for the feature value, the constraint of the shaping rule may be made weaker, or stronger in case the feature value found on a per frame basis can be regarded as being reliable or not, thereby allowing voice detection to be made without dependency upon a noise environment.

摘要： To this end, a voice detection device includes a band-based power calculation unit that calculates a total of signal power values (sub-band power) of signals entered from the microphones from one preset frequency width (sub-band) to another. The voice detection device also includes a band-based noise estimation unit that estimates the sub-band based noise power, and a sub-band based SNR calculation unit. The sub-band based SNR calculation unit calculates a sub-band SNR from one sub-band to another to output the largest one of the sub-band SNRs as an SNR for a microphone of interest. The voice detection device further includes a voice/non-voice decision unit that determines the voice/non-voice using the SNR for the microphone of interest.

摘要： In a voice recording equipment and method, voice data from a speaker is received using a microphone. Threshold values T1 and T2 of surrounding environment of the voice recording equipment are determined. If an intensity of the voice data is less than or equal to the threshold value T2, the voice recording is stopped and the speaker is informed that the voice data is not useful. If the intensity of the voice data is greater than the threshold values, the voice data is stored into a storage unit.

摘要： A spectrum calculating unit calculates, for each of the frames, a spectrum by performing a frequency analysis on an acoustic signal. An estimating unit estimates a noise spectrum. An energy calculating unit calculates an energy characteristic amount. An entropy calculating unit calculates a normalized spectral entropy value. A generating unit generates a characteristic vector based on the energy characteristic amounts and the normalized spectral entropy values that have been calculated for a plurality of frames. A likelihood calculating unit calculates a speech likelihood value of a target frame that corresponds to the characteristic vector. In a case where the speech likelihood value is larger than a threshold value, a judging unit judges that the target frame is a speech frame.

摘要： Disclosed is a code conversion method to convert a first code sequence conforming to a first speech coding scheme into a second code sequence conforming to a second speech coding scheme. The method includes the following steps. The first step discriminates whether the first code sequence corresponds to a speech part or to a non-speech part, and generates a numerical value that indicates the discrimination result as a control flag. The second step converts the first code sequence into the second code sequence and outputs said second code sequence, when the value of the control flag corresponds to the speech part. The third step outputs the second code sequence that corresponds to the value of the control flag, when the value of the control flag corresponds to the non-speech part.
