Abstract

Sensors capable to detect specific audio events can be deployed inside smart cities, to improve citizens safety. A sensor cloud would allow to georeference relevant incidents, like screams, car crashes, or gunshots. An IoT based approach requires the development and deployment of smart nodes combining minimal power consumption and reasonable preprocessing capabilities, to minimize both power supply requirements and the amount of transmitted data. In this work, a possible system architecture is presented, and a detailed analysis of IA approaches to sound event detection is carried-out. Optimizations for IoT nodes deployments are then applied, and a performance comparison to current algorithms is presented.
