Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2014). A tool for urban soundscape evaluation applying Support Vector Machines for developing a soundscape classification model. Science of the Total Environment, 482-83, 440-451. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2013.07.108

To ensure appropriate soundscape management in urban environments, the urban-planning authorities need a range of tools that enable such a task to be performed. An essential step during the management of urban areas from a sound standpoint should b...

Application of a methodology for categorizing and differentiating urban soundscapes using acoustical descriptors and semantic-differential attributes (2013)
Journal Article
Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2013). Application of a methodology for categorizing and differentiating urban soundscapes using acoustical descriptors and semantic-differential attributes. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 134(1), 791-802. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4807804

A subjective and physical categorization of an ambient sound is the first step to evaluate the soundscape and provides a basis for designing or adapting this ambient sound to match people’s expectations. For this reason, the main goal of this work...
