ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for a method and apparatus for segmenting a multi-media program based upon audio events. In an embodiment a method of classifying an audio stream is provided. This method includes receiving an audio stream. Sampling the audio stream at a predetermined rate and then combining a predetermined number of samples into a clip. A plurality of features are then determined for the clip and are analyzed using a linear approximation algorithm. The clip is then characterized based upon the results of the analysis conducted with the linear approximation algorithm.
