In this paper, we evaluate a recently proposed algorithm in machine learning called AdaBoost for content-based audio classification and retrieval. AdaBoost is a kind of large margin classifiers and is efficient for on-line learning. Our focus is to evaluate its classification and retrieval accuracy as compared with other methods. The Muscle Fish audio database of 409 sounds is used for the evaluation with perceptual and cepstral features.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
