2.2. Audio Signal Preprocessing and Snoring Event Monitoring
- Step 1: Read the audio file and generate a time-domain map.
- Step 2: Utilize the envelope function to extract the waveform’s envelope, selecting “peak” as the function’s argument. Subsequently, employ the “find-peaks” function to locate the envelope’s peaks. The peak interval threshold is set to 5/2*fs, where fs represents the audio sampling rate.
- Step 3: Compute the midpoints between adjacent peaks, using these points as the start and end to partition the entire audio. The effect of localized segmentation detection is illustrated in Figure 3.
- Step 4: Locate the segmented audio using the double-threshold method, calculate the valid segment length, filter out valid data falling within the 0.8–4.8 s range, and consolidate the filtered data.
