Action identification method, action identification device, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium recording action identification program

Abstract

An action identification device acquires sound data from a microphone, calculates a feature amount of the sound data, determines whether or not a user is present in a space in which the microphone is installed, calculates a noise feature amount indicating a feature amount of noise based on the calculated feature amount and stores the calculated noise feature amount in a noise feature amount storage unit in a case where the user is not present in the space, subtracts the noise feature amount stored in the noise feature amount storage unit from the calculated feature amount to extract an action sound feature amount indicating a feature amount of an action sound generated by an action of the user in a case where the user is present in the space, and identifies an action of the user by using the action sound feature amount.
