In speech corpus generation and speech recognition, it is sometimes needed to segment the input speech data without any prior knowledge. A method to accomplish this kind of segmentation, often called as blind segmentation, or acoustic segmentation, is to find boundaries which minimize the Euclidean distances among the feature vectors of each segments. However, the use of this metric alone is prone to errors because of the fluctuations or variations of the feature vectors within a segment. In this paper, we introduce the principal component analysis method to take the trend of feature vectors into consideration, so that the proposed distance measure be the distance between feature vectors and their projected points on the principal components. The proposed distance measure is applied in the LBDP(level building dynamic programming) algorithm for an experimentation of continuous speech segmentation. The result was rather promising, resulting in 3-6% reduction in deletion rate compared to the pure Euclidean measure.
