Noisemes: Manual Annotation of Environmental Noise in Audio Streams
نویسندگان
چکیده
Audio information retrieval is a difficult problem due to the highly unstructured nature of the data. A general labeling system for identifying audio patterns could unite research efforts in the field. This paper introduces 42 distinct labels, the “noisemes”, developed for the manual annotation of noise segments as they occur in audio streams of consumer captured and semiprofessionally produced videos. The labels describe distinct noise units based on audio concepts, independent of visual concepts as much as possible. We trained a recognition system using 5.6 hours of manually labeled data, and present recognition results.

متن کاملTowards Automated Annotation of Audio and Video Recordings by Application of Advanced Web-services
In this paper we describe audio and video processing algorithms that are developed in the scope of AVATecH project. The purpose of these algorithms is to shorten the time taken by manual annotation of audio and video recordings by extracting features from media files and creating semi-automated annotations. We show that the use of such supporting algorithms can shorten the annotation time to 30...
متن کاملMorphological Segmentation
Many applications and practices of working with recorded sounds are based on the segmentation and concatenation of fragments of audio streams. In collaborations with composers and sound artists we have observed that a recurrent musical event or sonic shape is often identified by the temporal evolution of the sound features. We would like to contribute to the development of a novel segmentation ...
متن کاملA research agenda for assessing the utility of document annotations in multimedia databases of meeting recordings
The recording, multimodal analysis and archiving of meetings introduce new challenges for research in multimedia information management. Meetings involve multiple media that can be aligned together. This requires a global annotation framework. In particular, meetings often deal with documents, either projected or discussed, which can be aligned with the audio and video streams. This article pre...
