Discrimination between speech and music is important in many multimedia applications. Previously we proposed a new parameter for speech/music discrimination, the mean of minimum cepstral distances (MMCD), and it outperformed the conventional parameters. One weakness of MMCD is that its performance depends on range of candidate frames to compute the minimum cepstral distance, which requires the optimal selection of the range experimentally. In this paper, to alleviate the problem, we propose a multi-dimensional MMCD parameter which consists of multiple MMCDS with combination of different candidate frame ranges. Experimental results show that the multi-dimensional MMCD parameter yields an error rate reduction of 22.5% compared with the optimally chosen one-dimensional MMCD parameter.

본 논문에서는 실제 방송 환경에 적용 가능한 방송용 음원 모니터링 시스템을 구축하기 위한 사전연구로 방송 오디오 신호로부터 음악신호 구간을 자동으로 검출할 수 있는 시스템을 제안하였다. 음악구간과 비음악구간의 구분을 위한 특징으로는 사람의 음성 발화 특성을 반영하여 에너지 표준편차와 log 에너지 표준편차 그리고 log 에너지 평균 등 3개의 간단한 시간영역 특징들을 사용하였으며 최종 음악신호 구간 판별은 각 에너지 한계값(threshold)을 이용한 Rule-base 분류를 기반으로 하였다. 실제 FM 라디오 방송 신호를 24시간 녹음하여 진행한 모의실험에서 음악구간 인식률은 96%, 비-음악구간 인식률은 87%를 나타내어 방송용 음원 모니터링 시스템의 전처리기로 손색이 없음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Discrimination of music and speech from the multimedia signal is an important task in audio coding and broadcast monitoring systems. This paper deals with the problem of feature parameter extraction for discrimination of music and speech. The wavelet transform is a multi-resolution analysis method that is useful for analysis of temporal and spectral properties of non-stationary signals such as speech and audio signals. We propose new feature parameters extracted from the wavelet transformed signal for discrimination of music and speech. First, wavelet coefficients are obtained on the frame-by-frame basis. The analysis frame size is set to 20 ms. A parameter $E_{sum}$ is then defined by adding the difference of magnitude between adjacent wavelet coefficients in each scale. The maximum and minimum values of $E_{sum}$ for period of 2 seconds, which corresponds to the discrimination duration, are used as feature parameters for discrimination of music and speech. To evaluate the performance of the proposed feature parameters for music and speech discrimination, the accuracy of music and speech discrimination is measured for various types of music and speech signals. In the experiment every 2-second data is discriminated as music or speech, and about 93% of music and speech segments have been successfully detected.
