Abstract
Approaches described herein can capture an audio signal using at least one microphone while a user of an electronic device is determined to be asleep. At least one audio frame can be determined from the audio signal. The at least one audio frame represents a spectrum of frequencies detected by the at least one microphone over some period of time. One or more sounds associated with the at least one audio frame can be determined. Sleep-related information can be generated. The information identifies the one or more sounds as potential sources of sleep disruption.
