The collected samples are analysed by using preprocessing techniques. The sound features are extracted during the features extraction using the well-known algorithm which is Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC). Subsequently, after features extraction, a classification algorithm (Hidden Markov Models (HMM)) is employed to compare the features extracted in real-time with that available in the knowledge base.
