Identification of abnormal audio events based on probabilistic novelty detection

چکیده
This paper exploits the novelty detection technique towards identifying hazardous situations. The proposed system elaborates on the audio part of the PROMETHEUS database which includes heterogeneous recordings and was captured under real-world conditions. Three types of environments were used: smart-home, indoors public space and outdoors public space. The multidomain set of descriptors was formed by the following features: MFCCs, MPEG-7 descriptors, Teager energy operator parameters and wavelet packets. We report detection results using three types of probabilistic novelty detection algorithms: universal GMM, universal HMM and GMM clustering. We conclude that the results are encouraging and demonstrate the superiority of the novelty detection approach against the classification one.

Deep Recurrent Neural Network-Based Autoencoders for Acoustic Novelty Detection
In the emerging field of acoustic novelty detection, most research efforts are devoted to probabilistic approaches such as mixture models or state-space models. Only recent studies introduced (pseudo-)generative models for acoustic novelty detection with recurrent neural networks in the form of an autoencoder. In these approaches, auditory spectral features of the next short term frame are pred...
متن کاملBeyond Novelty Detection: Incongruent Events, when General and Specific Classifiers Disagree
Unexpected stimuli are a challenge to any machine learning algorithm. Here we identify distinct types of unexpected events, focusing on ’incongruent events’ when ’general level’ and ’specific level’ classifiers give conflicting predictions. We define a formal framework for the representation and processing of incongruent events: starting from the notion of label hierarchy, we show how partial o...
متن کاملNovelty detection in jet engine vibration spectra
This paper presents a principled method for detecting “abnormal” content in vibration spectra obtained from rotating machinery. We illustrate the use of the method in detecting abnormality in jet engine vibration spectra corresponding to unforeseen engine events. We take a novelty detection approach, in which a model of normality is constructed from the typically large numbers of examples of “n...
متن کاملTraffic Condition Detection in Freeway by using Autocorrelation of Density and Flow
Traffic conditions vary over time, and therefore, traffic behavior should be modeled as a stochastic process. In this study, a probabilistic approach utilizing Autocorrelation is proposed to model the stochastic variation of traffic conditions, and subsequently, predict the traffic conditions. Using autocorrelation of the time series samples of density and flow which are collected from segments...
متن کاملProbabilistic Contaminant Source Identification in Water Distribution Infrastructure Systems
Large water distribution systems can be highly vulnerable to penetration of contaminant factors caused by different means including deliberate contamination injections. As contaminants quickly spread into a water distribution network, rapid characterization of the pollution source has a high measure of importance for early warning assessment and disaster management. In this paper, a methodology...
