End-Point Detection with State Transition Model based on Chunk-Wise Classification (1912.10442v1)

Published 22 Dec 2019 in eess.AS and cs.SD

Abstract: A state transition model (STM) based on chunk-wise classification was proposed for end-point detection (EPD). In general, EPD is developed using frame-wise voice activity detection (VAD) with additional STM, in which the state transition is conducted based on VAD's frame-level decision (speech or non-speech). However, VAD errors frequently occur in noisy environments, even though we use state-of-the-art deep neural network based VAD, which causes the undesired state transition of STM. In this work, to build robust STM, a state transition is conducted based on chunk-wise classification as EPD does not need to be conducted in frame-level. The chunk consists of multiple frames and the classification of chunk between speech and non-speech is done by aggregating the decisions of VAD for multiple frames, so that some undesired VAD errors in a chunk can be smoothed by other correct VAD decisions. Finally, the model was evaluated in both qualitative and quantitative measures including phone error rate.
