ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for speech signal detection and classification in which a partial auto-correlation and residual power analyzation circuit extracts a normalized first-order partial auto-correlation coefficient and K.sub.1 a normalized zero-order residual power E.sub.N from an input signal, and a sound source analyzation circuit extracts a normalized residual correlation .phi. from the input signal, and in which on the basis of these extracted parameters, speech signals are detected, and, when so detected, the detected speech signals are classified into a voiced sound V, an unvoiced sound U and silence S. The classification of the respective voiced sound, unvoiced sound and silence is determined on the basis of preset threshold values that are mutually considered and which correspond to values of these extracted K.sub.1, E.sub.N and .phi. parameters for establishing boundary values for classifying the input signals into a voiced sound, an unvoiced sound or silence.
