This paper is on a system design of recognizing sound sources and tracing locations from detecting a section of sound sources which is strong in surrounding environmental sounds about sound sources occurring in an abnormal situation by using signals within the section. In detection of the section with strong sound sources, weighted average delta energy of a short section is calculated from audio signals received. After inputting it into a low-pass filter, through comparison of values of the output result, a section strong in background sound is defined. In recognition of sound sources, from data of the detected section, using an HMM(: Hidden Markov Model) as a traditional recognition method, learning and recognition are realized from creating information to recognize sound sources. About signals of sound sources that surrounding background sounds are included, by using energy of existing signals, after detecting the section, compared with the recognition through the HMM, a recognition rate of 3.94% increase is shown. Also, based on the recognition result, location grasping by using TDOA(: Time Delay of Arrival) between signals in the section accords with 97.44% of angles of a real occurrence location.

Literary works contain various human emotion and historical, cultural background. It is very significant to understand sound recognition and receptions represented in many literary works. This study aims to investigate the sound impression on ancient Korean Sijo( Korean Verse) involved various traditional korean emotion, which were expressed in different situations. Firstly we selected the appropriate Sijo to express sounds, and then classified the sound, analyzed the meaning of recognition to the sound. The number of 297 sounds were classified into 13 categories, and 20 emotional meanings. Especially, 'internal sadness' characterized the korean rooted emotion were more expressed than other meanings and this meaning were symbolized by the sound of wild geese and cuckoos.

Recently many researches concerning heart sound analysis are being processed with development of digital signal processing and electronic components. But there are few researches about recognition of heart sound, especially full cardiac cycled heart sound, In this paper, a new recognition methods about. full cardiac cycled heart sound was proposed. For the first, the database was built by principal components analysis on training heart sound set. This database is used to recognize new input of heart sound, Ilear sounds were classified into seven classes such as normal(NO) class, pre-systolic murmurr(PS) class, early systolic murmur(ES) class, late systolic murmurr(LS) class, early diastolic murmur(EI) class, late diastolic murmur(LD) class and continuous murmuru(CM) class. As a result, we could verify that our new method has better efficiencies for the recognition the characteristics of heart sound than any precedent research. The maximum recognition rates of the new method are 71% for NO, 80% for PS and ES, 78% for LS, 87% for ED, 60% for LD and 20% for CM. Although the present results aren't practically sufficient to use our new method in recognizing heart sound, the importance of this paper is for recognition of heart sound within full cardiac cycle. We can get a better result by building a more efficient database.

This paper proposes a study on applying signal processing and deep learning for sound recognition that detects sounds commonly heard in daily life (Screaming, Clapping, Crowd_clapping, Car_passing_by and Back_ground, etc.). In the proposed sound recognition, several techniques related to the spectrum of sound waves, augmentation of sound data, ensemble learning for various predictions, convolutional neural networks (CNN) deep learning, and two-dimensional (2-D) data are used for improving the recognition accuracy. The proposed sound recognition technology shows that it can accurately recognize various sounds through experiments.

The deaf can not recognize useful sound informations such as alarm, doorbell, siren, car horn, and phone ring etc., because they have the hearing impairment. To solve this problems, portable hearing assistive devices which have suitable environment sound recognition methods are needed. In this paper, the DTW algorithm for sound recognition system with new active slope weighting constraint method was proposed. The environment sound recognition methods consist of three processes. First process is extraction of start point and end point using frequency and amplitude of sound. Second process is extraction of features and third process is classification of features for given segments. As a result of the experiment, the recognition rate of the proposed method is over 90%. And, the recognition rate of the proposed method increased about 20% than the conventional algorithm. Therefore if there are developed portable assistive devices which use developed method to recognize environment sound for hearing-impaired persons, they could be more convenient in life.

The normal transmission characteristics of sound are hardly obtained due to the various noises and structural factors in a running car environment. It is due to the channel distortion of the original source sound recorded by microphones, and it seriously degrades the performance of the speech recognition in real driving environments. In this paper we analyze the degree of intelligibility under the various sound distortion environments by channels according to driving speed with respect to speech transmission index(STI) and compare the STI with rates of speech recognition. We examine the correlation between measures of intelligibility depending on sound pick-up patterns and performance in speech recognition. Thereby we consider the optimal location of a microphone in single channel environment. In experimentation we find that high correlation is obtained between STI and rates of speech recognition.

Although phonocardiography by auscultation has been used in diagnosis long time ago, recognition of heart sound was tried only restricted fields such as the first heart sound, the second heart sound, and specific valve operation for the purpose of analyzing local function or operation of heart and developments of heart sound recognition in full cycle are quite insignificant. in this paper, we proposed a recognition method which extracts features of heart sound in full cycle and classllies heart sounds This proposed recognition algorithm is based on detecting the first and second heart sounds in thme domain. The algorithm classifics heart sound into several classes by extracting the important time blocks and analyzing the peak position, integration values and statistical variables. Heart sounds are classified into normal, early systolic murmur, late systolic mumur, early diastolic murmur, late diastolie murmur, continuous murmur. We can verify our algorithm is useful from the results which show the average recognition rate of heart sounds is 88 perecnt. Recognition error was occurred mainly in early systolic murmur.

In order to exploit underwater resources successfully, the first step would be a marine environmental research and exploration in the seafloor. Generally one sets up a long-term underwater experimental unit in the seafloor and retrieves the unit later after a certain period time. Essential to these applications is the reliable teleoperation and telemetering of the unit. In this paper we presents a robust underwater sound recognition algorithm by which we can identify the sound signal without the influence of disturbances due to underwater environmental changes. The proposed method provides a means suitable for the acoustic releaser which requires low power dissipation and long-time underwater operation. We demonstrate its ability of securing stability and fast sound recognition through simulation methods.

Recently various attempts to control hardware through integration of sensors and artificial intelligence have been made. This paper proposes a smart hazardous sound detection at home. Previous sound recognition methods have problems due to the processing of background sounds and the low recognition accuracy of high-frequency sounds. To get around these problems, a new MFCC(Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient) algorithm using Wiener filter, modified filterbank is proposed. Experiments for comparing the performance of the proposed method and the original MFCC were conducted. For the classification of feature vectors extracted using the proposed MFCC, DNN(Deep Neural Network) was used. Experimental results showed the superiority of the modified MFCC in comparison to the conventional MFCC in terms of 1% higher training accuracy and 6.6% higher recognition rate.
