The bag-of-frames approach: a not so sufficient model for urban soundscapes [PDF]
The "bag-of-frames" approach (BOF), which encodes audio signals as the long-term statistical distribution of short-term spectral features, is commonly regarded as an effective and sufficient way to represent environmental sound recordings (soundscapes ...
