Abstract(in English) When a listener try to listening a recorded audio data exactly at short time, some indices of easiness of listening are needed to adjust to the best reproduction speed. Speaking rate is one of the most important factor in such indices of listening. Thus, we need an accurate method for estimating speaking method. In this paper, the new method for estimating speaking rate is proposed adding to existing two-band method proposed our previous paper. Not only evaluating each method, but also we integrated these two method in the final method to improve the accuracy of estimation. Furthermore, we discussed whether we could evaluate difference of easiness of listening for individual speakers by comparing these two estimators.
