Abstract

The work assessed seven classical classifiers and two beamforming algorithms for detecting surveillance sound events. The tests included the use of AWGN with -10 dB to 30 dB SNR. Data Augmentation was also employed to improve algorithms' performance. The results showed that the combination of SVM and Delay-and-Sum (DaS) scored the best accuracy (up to 86.0\%), but had high computational cost (\approx 402 ms), mainly due to DaS. The use of SGD also seems to be a good alternative since it has achieved good accuracy either (up to 85.3\%), but with quicker processing time (\approx 165 ms).
