Abstract
A method is for the classification of temporally sequential digital audio data that describe acoustic signals that identify hazardous situations. The method includes calculating a large number of frequency spectrograms for stepwise progressive time intervals of the temporally sequential audio data, and forming a specific number of frequency segments for each octave of each individual frequency spectrogram. The frequency segments include a subset of the individual frequency spectrograms. The method further includes adding corresponding frequency segments of the octaves of each individual frequency spectrogram, calculating frequency components through the formation of mean values for the individual, added frequency segments in each individual frequency spectrogram, and generating a classification vector using a classifier and the number of frequency components of the large number of frequency spectrograms. The classifier is configured to classify signals, described by the associated temporally sequential digital audio data, that identify hazardous situations.
