Abstract

To date, common acoustic features such as MPEG-7 and Fourier/wavelet transform-based features have been frequently used for environmental sound classification. However, these transforms have difficulty dealing with specific properties of environmental sounds, due to their limited scopes. In this paper, we investigate three types of transforms as yet untried for this purpose, and show that they are more effective than traditional features. This result is mainly due to the fact that they have functionalities that were not easily treatable with traditional transforms. Experimental results show that the combination of these features with traditional features can achieve 86.09% of the maximum accuracy in environmental sound classification, compared to 74.35% of the maximum accuracy when confined to traditional features.
