Overview:

Audio Classification and Event Detection with ML is a technical course focused on building machine learning models to classify audio and detect sound events in real-world environments.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level to advanced-level data professionals who wish to apply machine learning techniques to analyze and classify audio data for use in public safety, manufacturing, smart cities, and multimedia analytics.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

  • Understand how sound events are modeled and categorized using ML.
  • Preprocess audio data using feature extraction techniques like MFCC and spectrograms.
  • Build, train, and evaluate models for audio classification and event detection.
  • Deploy ML models for real-time or batch-based audio processing in enterprise or embedded settings.

Format of the Course

  • Interactive lecture and discussion.
  • Lots of exercises and practice.
  • Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
