The zero-crossing rate is the rate of sign-changes along a signal, i.e., the rate at which the signal changes from positive to negative or back.[1] This feature has been used heavily in both speech recognition and music information retrieval, being a key feature to classify percussive sounds.[2]

ZCR is defined formally as

zcr=1T1t=1T1𝕀{stst1<0}

where s is a signal of length T and the indicator function 𝕀{A} is 1 if its argument A is true and 0 otherwise.

In some cases only the "positive-going" or "negative-going" crossings are counted, rather than all the crossings - since, logically, between a pair of adjacent positive zero-crossings there must be one and only one negative zero-crossing.

For monophonic tonal signals, the zero-crossing rate can be used as a primitive pitch detection algorithm.

Applications

Zero crossing rates are used for Voice activity detection(VAD), i.e., finding whether a segment of speech is voiced or unvoiced.
