Abstract
Voice Activity Detection (VAD) refers to the determination of the existence of speech in a given speech signal frame. Robust VAD helps to improve the automation efficiency of speech applications
such as speech enhancement
speaker recognition
and hearing aids and so on. In order to improve the accuracy and efficiency of voice activity detection under low SNR
a new speech feature—Low Frequency De-noising Energy (LFDE) is proposed
which is applied to VAD and utilizes LFDE and existing acoustic features (Mel frequency cepstrum parameters
formants Frequency) combined with the Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) classifier.Simulation experiments show that the accuracy and efficiency of voice activity detection are improved.
