Abstract
With the current advancements in computing and multimedia technology, the information content for information processing is no longer confined to collections of text-based documents, but now consists of very diverse media such as images, video and audio. Various branches of media-specific information processing fields have now emerged due to the challenges specific to the characteristics of the various media data and the specialized domain knowledge required for developing modern-age and state-of-the art software applications. These typically employ Computational Intelligence techniques in combination with suitable Digital Signal Processing Algorithms. This talk will focus on the audio media and an overview of audio content analysis techniques will be presented towards automatic analysis and understanding of sounds. Several related projects in the domains of music and heart sounds will be discussed.
