From Traditional to Deep Learning Methods for Baby Cry Audio Signal Classification: A Systematic Literature Review

Even though the necessities of babies are known and could be predictable but the way they communicate to their parents makes those latest confused, in order to help parents and caregivers understanding baby's needs, researchers dig into deep learning methods to apply them on this field. In this article we will review recent works on deep learning methods applied to baby's cry, discuss methods of classification they use, explain the pre-processing steps for baby cry audio data. Then exploring the main databases operated in literature and finish with multiple applications of this research.
