    Robust acoustic event classification using bag-of-visual-words
    (International Speech Communication Association publication@isca-speech.org 4 Rue des Fauvettes - Lous Tourils Baixas 66390, 2018) Mulimani, M.; Koolagudi, S.G.
    This paper presents a novel Bag-of-Visual-Words (BoVW) approach, to represent the grayscale spectrograms of acoustic events. Such, BoVW representations are referred as histograms of visual features, used for Acoustic Event Classification (AEC). Further, Chi-square distance between histograms of visual features evaluated, which generates kernel to Support Vector Machines (Chi-square SVM) classifier. Evaluation of the proposed histograms of visual features together with Chi-square SVM classifier is conducted on different categories of acoustic events from UPC-TALP corpora in clean and different noise conditions. Results show that proposed approach is more robust to noise and achieves improved recognition accuracy compared to other methods. © 2018 International Speech Communication Association.

    Acoustic Event Classification Using Spectrogram Features
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Mulimani, M.; Koolagudi, S.G.
    This paper investigates a new feature extraction method to extract different features from the spectrogram of an audio signal for Acoustic Event Classification (AEC). A new set of features is formulated and extracted from local spectrogram regions named blocks. The average recognition performance of proposed spectrogram based features and Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) with their deltas and accelerations on Support Vector Machines (SVM) is compared. In this work, different categories of acoustic events are considered from the Freiburg-106 dataset. Proposed features show significantly improved performance over conventional Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) for Acoustic Event Classification. © 2018 IEEE.
