CONTINUOUS SPEECH ESTIMATION DEVICE, CONTINUOUS SPEECH ESTIMATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

The present invention allows changes in operation as appropriate according to the usage method. A keyword detection unit 11 generates keyword detection results indicating the results of detecting, from input audio, the pronunciation of a prescribed keyword. An audio detection unit 12 generates audio interval detection results indicating the results of detecting, from the input audio, an audio interval. A continuous speech detection unit 13 generates continuous speech detection results indicating the presence of continuous speech if the keyword detection results indicate that the keyword has been detected, and if the audio interval detection results indicate that an audio interval has been detected.
