It is a difficult problem how to evaluate a parameter's effectiveness for dividing a speech signal into unvoiced or voiced segment.An application of granular computing to this topic is presented.By analyzing eight parameters of the speech signal
a decision table is constructed depending on the granulation theory
which provides a method for evaluating the significance of parameters to judge the unvoiced/voiced decision.And then the optimum scheme for real-time speech signal segment and making decision rules is obtained by choosing multi-parameter set MFCC
wavelet cross-correlation
wavelet coefficient and short-time selfcorrelation.The experimental results indicate that the accuracy of segmentation algorithm is average 93.86% for pure speech and 90.27% for speech mixed with noise.In addition
the update frame size is 20 samples in this algorithm
which denotes its good real-time performance.
