In this paper, we introduce an hybrid time-frequency/support vector machine algorithm for the detection of abrupt spectral changes. A stationarity index is derived from support vector novelty detection theory by using sub-images extracted from the time-frequency plane as feature vectors. Simulations show the efficiency of this new algorithm for audio signal segmentation, compared to another nonparametric detector.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
