Abstract
An abnormal-sound detection device has an imaging unit, an operation range identification unit, a sound collection unit, an abnormal-sound detection unit, an abnormal-sound generation position identification unit, and an abnormal-sound source determination unit. The operation range identification unit identifies and stores the operation range of a diagnosis object on the basis of the image captured by an imaging unit. The abnormal-sound detection unit detects abnormalities in sounds included in the sounds collected by the sound collection unit, the sounds arriving from the diagnosis object. When an abnormality in a sound is detected by the abnormal-sound detection unit, the abnormal-sound generation position identification unit identifies the position at which the abnormality of the sound was generated. The abnormal-sound source determination unit compares the operation range and the abnormal-sound generation position of the diagnosis object, and determines whether the abnormality of the sound is derived from an abnormality of the diagnosis object.
