Abstract

Research in the field of Intelligent Audio Analysis possesses rich application potential of commercial and practical interest. These comprise audio alteration, retrieval, interaction, monitoring and surveillance, and entertainment. A detailed description is given alongside current aims to advance the field.

It is not knowledge, but the act of learning, not possession but the act of getting there, which grants the greatest enjoyment.

—Carl Friedrich Gauss.
