Robust Sounds of Activities of Daily Living Classification in Two-Channel Audio-Based Telemonitoring

Table 3

Classification accuracies of various combinations of source separation and sound activity detection methods for one of the microphone configurations of the noisy SDL database, across four different noise configurations. Despite this, source separation methods do provide relative reductions in error rate of up to 7%, 48%, and 2% compared with CSLE alone for the radio normal, rain, and radio loud conditions, respectively.
