According to one embodiment, an apparatus for discriminating speech/non-speech of a first acoustic signal includes a weight assignment unit, a feature extraction unit, and a speech/non-speech discrimination unit. The weight assignment unit is configured to assign a weight to each frequency band, based on a frequency spectrum of the first acoustic signal including a user's speech and a frequency spectrum of a second acoustic signal including a disturbance sound. The feature extraction unit is configured to extract a feature from the frequency spectrum of the first acoustic signal, based on the weight of each frequency band. The speech/non-speech discrimination unit is configured to discriminate speech/non-speech of the first acoustic signal, based on the feature.
An apparatus for discriminating speech/non-speech of a first acoustic signal, comprising:
A method for discriminating speech/non-speech of a first acoustic signal, comprising:
A computer readable medium for causing a computer to perform a method for discriminating speech/non-speech of a first acoustic signal, the method comprising:
