SPEECH FEATURE EXTRACTION APPARATUS, SPEECH FEATURE EXTRACTION METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

A speech feature extraction apparatus 100 includes a voice activity detection unit 103 that drops non-voice frames from frames corresponding to an input speech utterance, and calculates a posterior of being voiced for each frame, a voice activity detection process unit 106 calculates a function value as weights in pooling frames to produce an utterance-level feature, from a given a voice activity detection posterior, and an utterance-level feature extraction unit 112 that extracts an utterance-level feature, from the frame on a basis of multiple frame-level features, using the function values.
