Voice Activity Detection in presence of background noise using EEG

8 Nov 2019 · Gautam Krishna, Co Tran, Yan Han, Mason Carnahan, Ahmed H Tewfik ·

In this paper we demonstrate that performance of voice activity detection (VAD) system operating in presence of background noise can be improved by concatenating acoustic input features with electroencephalography (EEG) features. We also demonstrate that VAD using only EEG features shows better performance than VAD using only acoustic features in presence of background noise. We implemented a recurrent neural network (RNN) based VAD system and we demonstrate our results for two different data sets recorded in presence of different noise conditions in this paper.
