A machine learning for environmental noise classification in smart cities
Many people may not be aware of the adverse effects of noise pollution on their health which include hearing impairment, negative social behaviour, anxiety, sleep disturbances and intelligibility to understand speech. Machine learning (ML) is the concept of making the machine determines, classifies,...

Many people may not be aware of the adverse effects of noise pollution on their health which include hearing impairment, negative social behaviour, anxiety, sleep disturbances and intelligibility to understand speech. Machine learning (ML) is the concept of making the machine determines, classifies, and does operations without being explicitly programmed. It is used in many fields such as intelligent transportation system and autonomous driving. Research in audio recognition has traditionally focused on the domains of speech and music. Comparatively, little research was done towards recognizing non-speech environmental sounds.
