In this paper, combining features is proposed as a way to enhance the classification accuracy of sounds under noisy environments using the CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) structure. A robust log Mel-filter bank using Wiener filter and PNCCs (Power Normalized Cepstral Coefficients) are extracted to form a 2-dimensional feature that is used as input to the CNN structure. An ebird database is used to classify 43 types of bird species in their natural environment. To evaluate the performance of the combined features under noisy environments, the database is augmented with 3 types of noise under 4 different SNRs (Signal to Noise Ratios) (20 dB, 10 dB, 5 dB, 0 dB). The combined feature is compared to the log Mel-filter bank with and without incorporating the Wiener filter and the PNCCs. The combined feature is shown to outperform the other mentioned features under clean environments with a 1.34 % increase in overall average accuracy. Additionally, the accuracy under noisy environments at the 4 SNR levels is increased by 1.06 % and 0.65 % for shop and schoolyard noise backgrounds, respectively.

발전소에서 운전 중인 발전 설비의 장비 및 기계의 동작, 감시, 진단은 매우 중요한 일이다. 발전소의 이상 감지를 위해 상태 모니터링이 사용되며, 이상이 발생되었을 때 고장의 원인을 분석하고 적절한 조치를 계획하기 위한 이상 진단 과정을 따르게 된다. 본 논문에서는 산업 현장에서 기기들의 운전시에 발생하는 기기 발생 음을 획득하여 정상/비정상을 판정하기 위한 알고리듬에 대하여 연구하였다. 사운드 감시(Sound Monitoring) 기술은 관측된 신호를 acoustic event로 분류하는 것과 분류된 이벤트를 정상 또는 비정상으로 구분하는 두 가지 과정으로 진행할 수 있다. 기존의 기술들은 주파수 분석과 패턴 인식의 방법으로 간단하게 적용되어 왔으며, 본 논문에서는 K-means clustering 알고리듬을 이용하여 사운드를 acoustic event로 분류하고 분류된 사운드를 정상 또는 비정상으로 구분하는 알고리듬을 개발하였다.

In this paper, to improve the classification accuracy of bird and amphibian acoustic sound, we utilize GLU (Gated Linear Unit) and Self-attention that encourages the network to extract important features from data and discriminate relevant important frames from all the input sequences for further performance improvement. To utilize acoustic data, we convert 1-D acoustic data to a log-Mel spectrogram. Subsequently, undesirable component such as background noise in the log-Mel spectrogram is reduced by GLU. Then, we employ the proposed temporal self-attention to improve classification accuracy. The data consist of 6-species of birds, 8-species of amphibians including endangered species in the natural environment. As a result, our proposed method is shown to achieve an accuracy of 91 % with bird data and 93 % with amphibian data. Overall, an improvement of about 6 % ~ 7 % accuracy in performance is achieved compared to the existing algorithms.
