Title
Semi-supervised speech activity detection with an application to automatic speaker verification.
Abstract
•We propose a new speech activity detector (SAD) based on semi-supervised learning of Gaussian mixture model (GMM).•The proposed SAD requires lower amount of data labeled data for initialization as compared to GMM-based approach.•We have shown improved detection of speech and non-speech frames on NIST OpenSAD dataset.•The proposed SAD gives promising results compared to other SADs in robust speaker verification task.
