Developing effective methods for automatic identification of noise sources is currently one of the most important tasks in long-term acoustical climate monitoring of the environment. Manual verification of recorded data, when it comes to proper determination of noise levels, is time-consuming and costly. A possible solution is to use pattern recognition techniques for acoustic signal recorded by a monitoring station. This paper presents usefulness of special directed measurement techniques, acoustic signal processing, and classification methods using artificial intelligence (the Sammon mapping) and learning systems methods (Support Vector Machines) in the recognition of corona audible noise from ultra-high voltage AC transmission lines.
