...the source itself) that explains how the latest VAD algorithm works? - Is it possible to obtain the VAD status of a Speex stream asynchronously? The current API seems to imply that some kind of polling is required to determine the voice/non-voice status. - Does the VAD algorithm implement syllabic/sonorant rate detection, as has been implemented many times in analog circuitry, and is described in this (and other) papers? http://people.csail.mit.edu/jrg/2005/IS05_schutte.pdf - Over what time period is VAD done? Is it done on a frame by frame basis or over some longer period? Thank you, -- Larry Gada...

...cates whether the encoded data contains speech or not? The API has a "get VAD status", but it seems like that might only indicate whether VAD is currently enabled. Perhaps the VAD status is contained somewhere in the data frames? > > > - Does the VAD algorithm implement syllabic/sonorant rate detection, > > as has been implemented many times in analog circuitry, and is > > described in this (and other) papers? > > http://people.csail.mit.edu/jrg/2005/IS05_schutte.pdf > > As far as I understand, the paper you reference above isn't applicable > to the p...
