Application of Collaborative Representation in Audio Signal Recognition

Abstract

Feature extraction and classifier design are the main problems of acoustic signal recognition algorithms. In this paper, we extract the mel-frequency cepstral coefficients of the acoustic features of vehicles in complex scenes. Collaborative representation is introduced for the design of a classification scheme (Collaborative Representative Classification, CRC), which synthetically considers the relationship among samples. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm produces good performance in vehicle recognition for the case of a complex data set. Compared with other classification algorithms, the method improves the precision of recognition.
