Convention Paper

Automatic Regular Voice, Raised Voice, and Scream Recognition Employing Fuzzy Logic

Authors: Lopatka, Kuba; Czyzewski, Andrzej

AES Convention 132 · Paper 8636 · April 2012

Abstract

A method of automatic recognition of regular voice, raised voice and scream used for audio surveillance system is presented. The algorithm for detection of voice activity in a noisy environment is discussed. Signal features used for sound classification, based on energy, spectral shape and tonality are introduced. Sound feature vectors are processed by a fuzzy classifier. The method is employed in an audio surveillance system working in real-time both in an indoor and outdoor environment. Achieved results of classifying real sound signals are presented and discussed.
