Abstract
A method for classifying a pair of audio signals into an agent audio signal and a customer audio signal. One embodiment relates to unsupervised training, in which the training corpus comprises a multiplicity of audio signal pairs, wherein each pair comprises an agent signal and a customer signal, and wherein it is unknown for each signal if it is by the agent or by the customer. Training is based on the agent signals being more similar to one another than the customer signals. An agent cluster and a customer cluster are determined. The input signals are associated with the agent or the customer according to the higher score combination of the input signals and the clusters. Another embodiment relates to supervised training, wherein an agent model is generated, and the input signal that yields higher score against the model is the agent signal, while the other is the customer signal.
