Overlapped Speech detection in multi-party conversations


Authors: Neeraj Sajjan, Shobhana Ganesh, Neeraj Sharma, Sriram Ganapathy, Neville Ryant

This is a project on overlapped speech detection in multi-party conversation meetings. We explore the effectivness of various features such as Mel Spectrogram, kurtosis etc using a neural network approach on two datasets: TIMIT and AMI. We make use of force alignment to rectify the errors inherent in human annotations of the AMI dataset.

Dependencies

  1. Python 2.7
  2. HTK Toolkit
  3. Keras

Folder Structure and Description

Codes

1. Feature Handling Codes:

  • htkmfc.py : python interface to reading and writing htk files
