Understanding and Indexing Sounds

Audio engineers at Imagine Research announced their developoment of MediaMined(TM) for understanding and indexing sound.

“It acts as a virtual studio engineer,” said Imagine Research’s founder and CEO Jay LeBoeuf. “If your software detects male vocals,” LeBoeuf adds, “then it would also respond by labeling the tracks and acting as intelligent studio assistant — this allows musicians and audio engineers to concentrate on the creative process rather than the mundane steps of configuring hardware and software.”

MediaMined may also enable detecting surrounding sounds of mobile devices as well as aiding physicians to diagnose qualities of coughs, wheezing, and other symptoms of diseases.

The technology uses three tiers of analysis to process audio files.

(NOTE: My aLEAP uses four tiers to analyze learning.)
