Abstract
For classifying different segments of a signal which has segments of at least a first type and second type, e.g. audio and speech segments, the signal is short-term classified on the basis of the at least one short-term feature extracted from the signal and a short-term classification result is delivered. The signal is also long-term classified on the basis of the at least one short-term feature and at least one long-term feature extracted from the signal and a long-term classification result is delivered. The short-term classification result and the long-term classification result are combined to provide an output signal indicating whether a segment of the signal is of the first type or of the second type.
