본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 정보에서 원하는 정보를 추출하는 멀티미디어 인덱싱 중 오디오 인덱싱의 전처리 부격인 음성/음악 분류실험을 하였다. 오디오 인덱싱에 있어서 음성/음악 분류기는 원 오디오 신호에서 정보를 가진 음성 부분을 분리하는 역할을 한다. 실험에서는 음성/음악 분류에서 널리 쓰이는 멜캡스트럼(Mel Cepstrum), 정규화 로그 에너지(normalized log energy), 영교차(Zero-Crossings)를 특징 파라미터로 사용하였다[l, 2, 3]. 특징공간은 GMM(Gaussian Mixture Model)에 의해 모델링 되었고, 오디오 신호의 분류는 각각 3가지 분류항목(음성, 음악, 음성+음악)과 2가지 분류항목(음성, 음악)을 적용하였다. 실험결과 3가지 분류항목 적용시와 2가지 분류항목 적용시 모두 멜캡스트럼을 사용하였을 때 가장 좋은 결과를 보였다.

In this letter, we propose a novel approach to improve the performance of speech/music classification for the selectable mode vocoder(SMV) of 3GPP2 using the Gaussian mixture model(GMM) which is based on the expectation-maximization(EM) algorithm. We first present an effective analysis of the features and the classification method adopted in the conventional SMV. And then feature vectors which are applied to the GMM are selected from relevant Parameters of the SMV for the efficient speech/music classification. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under various conditions and yields better results compared with the conventional scheme of the SMV.

In this paper, we describe the comparison between the combination of features using a speech and music discrimination, which is classifying between speech and music on audio signals. Audio signals are classified into 3classes (speech, music, speech and music) and 2classes (speech, music). Experiments carried out on three types of feature, Mel-cepstrum, energy, zero-crossings, and try to find a best combination between features to speech and music discrimination. We using a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) for discrimination algorithm and combine different features into a single vector prior to modeling the data with a GMM. In 3classes, the best result is achieved using Mel-cepstrum, energy and zero-crossings in a single feature vector (speech: 95.1％, music: 61.9％, speech & music: 55.5％). In 2classes, the best result is achieved using Mel-cepstrum, energy and Mel-cepstrum, energy, zero-crossings in a single feature vector (speech: 98.9％, music: 100％).

In this paper, we compared and analyzed the discrimination performance of speech/music about combinations of each features parameter. Audio signals are classified into 3 classes (speech, music, speech and music). On three types of features, Mel-cepstrum, energy, zero-crossings used to the experiments. Then compared and analyzed the best of the combinations between features to speech/ music discrimination performance. The best result is achieved using Mel-cepstrum, energy and zero-crossings in a single feature vector (speech: 95.1%, music: 61.9%, speech & music: 55.5%).

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to improve the performance of speech/music classification for the selectable mode vocoder (SMV) of 3GPP2 using the discriminative weight training which is based on the minimum classification error (MCE) algorithm. We first present an effective analysis of the features and the classification method adopted in the conventional SMV. And then proposed the speech/music decision rule is expressed as the geometric mean of optimally weighted features which are selected from the SMV. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under various conditions and yields better results compared with the conventional scheme of the SMV.

In this research, we propose an efficient Speech/Music discrimination method that uses spectrum analysis and neural network. The proposed method extracts the duration feature parameter(MSDF) from a spectral peak track by analyzing the spectrum, and it was used as a feature for Speech/Music discriminator combined with the MFSC. The neural network was used as a Speech/Music discriminator, and we have reformed various experiments to evaluate the proposed method according to the training pattern selection, size and neural network architecture. From the results of Speech/Music discrimination, we found performance improvement and stability according to the training pattern selection and model composition in comparison to previous method. The MSDF and MFSC are used as a feature parameter which is over 50 seconds of training pattern, a discrimination rate of 94.97% for speech and 92.38% for music. Finally, we have achieved performance improvement 1.25% for speech and 1.69% for music compares to the use of MFSC.

In this paper, we propose a novel a roach to improve the performance of speech/music classification for the selectable mode vocoder (SMV) of 3GPP2 using the support vector machine (SVM). The SVM makes it possible to build on an optimal hyperplane that is separated without the error where the distance between the closest vectors and the hyperplane is maximal. We first present an effective analysis of the features and the classification method adopted in the conventional SMV. And then feature vectors which are a lied to the SVM are selected from relevant parameters of the SMV for the efficient speech/music classification. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under various conditions and yields better results compared with the conventional scheme of the SMV.

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to improve the performance of speech/music classification using the recurrent neural network (RNN) in the enhanced voice services (EVS) of 3GPP for hearing aids. Feature vectors applied to the RNN are selected from the relevant parameters of the EVS for efficient speech/music classification. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under various conditions and large speech/music data. The proposed algorithm yields better results compared with the conventional scheme implemented in the EVS.

Accurate classification of input signals is the key prerequisite for variable bit-rate coding, which has been introduced in order to effectively utilize limited communication bandwidth. Especially, recent surge of multimedia services elevate the importance of speech/music classification. Among many speech/music classifier, the ones based on support vector machine (SVM) have a strong selling point, high classification accuracy, but their computational complexity and memory requirement hinder their way into actual implementations. Therefore, techniques that reduce the computational complexity and the memory requirement is inevitable, particularly for embedded systems. We first analyze implementation of an SVM-based classifier on embedded systems in terms of execution time and energy consumption, and then propose two techniques that alleviate the implementation requirements: One is a technique that removes support vectors that have insignificant contribution to the final classification, and the other is to skip processing some of input signals by virtue of strong correlations in speech/music frames. These are post-processing techniques that can work with any other optimization techniques applied during the training phase of SVM. With experiments, we validate the proposed algorithms from the perspectives of classification accuracy, execution time, and energy consumption.
