We propose a method for characterizing sound activity in fixed spaces through segmentation, indexing, and retrieval of continuous audio recordings. Regarding segmentation, we present a dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) that jointly infers onsets and end times of the most prominent sound events in the space, along with an extension of the algorithm for covering large spaces with distributed microphone...
Creating a database of user-contributed recordings allows sounds to be linked not only by the semantic tags and labels applied to them, but also to other sounds with similar acoustic characteristics. Of paramount importance in navigating these databases are the problems of retrieving similar sounds using text or sound-based queries, and automatically annotating unlabeled sounds. We propose an integrated...
There has been much recent progress in the technical infrastructure necessary to continuously characterize and archive all sounds, or more precisely auditory streams, that occur within a given space or human life. Efficient and intuitive access, however, remains a considerable challenge. In specifically musical domains, i.e., melody retrieval, query-by-example (QBE) has found considerable success...
