HMM-Based Acoustic Event Detection with AdaBoost Feature Selection
Given the spectral difference between speech and acoustic events, we propose using Kullback-Leibler distance to quantify the discriminant capability of all speech feature components in acoustic event detection. Based on these distances, we use AdaBoost to select a discriminant feature set and demonstrate that this feature set outperforms classical speech feature set such as MFCC in one-pass HMM-based acoustic event detection. We implement an HMM-based acoustic events detection system with lattice rescoring using a feature set selected by the above AdaBoost based approach.
