Sound of Daily Living Identification Based on Hierarchical Situation Audition.

ABSTRACT: One of the key objectives in developing IoT applications is to automatically detect and identify human activities of daily living (ADLs). Mobile phone users are becoming more accepting of sharing data captured by various built-in sensors. Sounds detected by smartphones are processed in this work. We present a hierarchical identification system to recognize ADLs by detecting and identifying certain sounds taking place in a complex audio situation (AS). Three major categories of sound are discriminated in terms of signal duration. These are persistent background noise (PBN), non-impulsive long sounds (NILS), and impulsive sound (IS). We first analyze audio signals in a situation-aware manner and then map the sounds of daily living (SDLs) to ADLs. A new hierarchica
