Abstract
Studies have shown that newborns are crying differently depending on their need. Medical experts state that the need behind a newborn cry can be identified by listening to the cry – an easy task for specialists but extremely hard for unskilled parents, who want to act as fast as possible to comfort their baby. In this paper, we propose various experiments on a previously developed fully automatic system that attempts to discriminate between different types of cries, based on Gaussian Mixture Models. The experiments show promising results despite the difficulty of the task.
