# DiscardShortSegs

HPE IDOL Speech Server initially segments audio by speaker and then identifies the speaker in each segment. Short segments can lower identification accuracy and you can choose to exclude short segments from speaker identification by setting `DiscardShortSegs` to a minimum segment length.

- The `sidoptimizer` module discards segments with durations below the specified value.
- The `speakerid` module returns a result of '`Unknown`' for any section with a duration below the specified value.
- The `audiotemplatescore` module returns a result of '`Unknown`' for any section with a duration below the specified value.

Type: | Decimal

Required: | No
Configuration Section: | audiotemplatescore, sidoptimizer, and speakerid modules
