Abstract

A method for recognising at least one of a non-verbal sound event and a scene in an audio signal comprising a sequence of frames of audio data, the method comprising: for each frame of the sequence: processing the frame of audio data to extract multiple acoustic features for the frame of audio data; and classifying the acoustic features to classify the frame by determining, for each of a set of sound classes, a score that the frame represents the sound class; processing the sound class scores for multiple frames of the sequence of frames to generate, for each frame, a sound class decision for each frame; and processing the sound class decisions for the sequence of frames to recognise the at least one of a non-verbal sound event and a scene.
