Patent attributes
The present application relates to a method of extracting audio features in a dialog detector in response to an input audio signal, the method comprising dividing the input audio signal into a plurality of frames, extracting frame audio features from each frame, determining a set of context windows, each context window including a number of frames surrounding a current frame, deriving, for each context window, a relevant context audio feature for the current frame based on the frame audio features of the frames in each respective context, and concatenating each context audio feature to form a combined feature vector to represent the current frame. The context windows with the different length can improve the response speed and improve robustness.
