  • Abstract
    A voice activity detection (VAD) algorithm is generated by using genetic programming (GP). The inputs of this VAD are the parameters extracted from the speech signals according to the ITU-T G.729B VAD standard. The GP-based VAD algorithm (GP-VAD) is evaluated using the AURORA-2 database. It is shown that the GP-VAD achieves approximately the same behaviour as the G.729B standard with a high artificial-to-intelligence ratio.
