Abstract
Speech detection can be achieved by identifying a speech segment within an audio segment using image classification. An audio segment of radio communications is obtained. An audio sub-segment within the audio segment is extracted. A sampled histogram is generated of a plurality of sampled values across a sampled time window of the audio sub-segment. A two-dimensional image is generated that represents a two-dimensional mapping of the sampled histogram along a first dimension and a predefined histogram along a second dimension that is orthogonal to the first dimension. The two-dimensional image is provided to an image classifier previously trained using the predefined histogram. An output is received from the image classifier based on the two-dimensional image. The output indicates whether the audio sub-segment contains speech.
