Remote monitoring, distress detection by slightest invasive systems: Sound recognition based on hierarchical
Abstract:
Europe has a growing aging population, leading to the need for adapted healthcare services. Our work aims at proposing a solution for falls detection of elderly people using sound recognition based on a hierarchical i-vectors system. The system presented in this paper improves significantly the accuracy of sound recognition compared to the state of the art methods. The latter provides a good recognition rate of 81.98% on noiseless sounds. This system needs to be tested in a noisy environment and this can be improved by using new sound descriptors.

Place theory, or place coding, suggests that different pitches are heard because various sound waves activate specific locations along the cochlea's basilar membrane. The brain determines the pitch of a sound by...
