Abstract

A method and device are provided for detecting acoustic shocks in an audio stream. The method includes: breaking down the audio stream into audio frames; analyzing the audio frames in order to assign each audio frame a category value from among a plurality of predefined values; and determining the probability of an acoustic shock occurring in a current frame, based on a sequence of a given length of category values assigned to a set of frames, using a two-state Markov model, defined by a predetermined transition matrix and transmission matrix.
