Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to find the appropriate features for describing sounds of particular instruments by tracking changes of some parameters in time. Polytimbral mixes, where spectra of compounding sounds overlap, were chosen to test classifiers. Paper shows the comparison of results obtained from classification performed using sets of sound features with and without new temporal features proposed by authors.
