Phonemic segmentation using the generalised Gamma distribution and small sample Bayesian information criterion
In this work, we present a text-independent automatic phone segmentation algorithm based on the Bayesian Information Criterion. Speech segmentation at a phone level imposes high resolution requirements in the short-time analysis of the audio signal; otherwise the limited information available in such a small scale would be too restrictive for an efficient characterisation of the signal. In orde...
متن کاملSpeaker segmentation using the MAP-adapted Bayesian information criterion
The Bayesian information criterion (BIC) is a model selection criterion that has previously been applied to speaker segmentation of broadcast news by several researchers. The BIC approach treats speaker segmentation as a model selection problem. As the BIC requires the estimation of the sample covariance matrix, its performance tends to deteriorate as the speaker-turn duration decreases. It is ...
متن کاملSegmentation in singer turns with the Bayesian information criterion
As part of a project on indexing ethno-musicological audio recordings, segmentation in singer turns automatically appeared to be essential. In this article, we present the problem of segmentation in singer turns of musical recordings and our first experiments in this direction by exploring a method based on the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), which are used in numerous works in audio segm...
متن کاملImproved speaker segmentation and segments clustering using the bayesian information criterion
Detection of speaker, channel and environment changes in a continuous audio stream is important in various applications (e.g., broadcast news, meetings/teleconferences etc.). Standard schemes for segmentation use a classi er and hence do not generalize to unseen speaker / channel / environments. Recently S.Chen introduced new segmentation and clustering algorithms, using the so-called BIC. This...
متن کاملBayes Estimates of Flood Quantiles using the Generalised Gamma Distribution∗
In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed to estimate flood quantiles while taking statistical uncertainties into account. Predictive exceedance probabilities of annual maximum discharges are obtained using the threeand fourparameter generalised gamma distribution (without and with location parameter respectively). The parameters of this distribution are assumed to be random quantities rat...
