You will learn to effortlessly load audio files and play it in Python notebooks and also to convert audio files into spectrograms in just 5 lines of code. In this tutorial, we will discuss some of the various aspects to determine the characteristics of a sound and we will learn to visualize any sound as a beautiful wave.

In one of our previous articles, we learned how to convert a simple text classifier into a fully functional speech classifier just by adding a few lines of code. The exponential advancement in ML and the number of researches being done in the field has given rise to many tools and software kits that make it effortless to implement complex tasks in just a few lines of codes. This is what we will do in this hands-on session. But how does a machine do it? Machines are good pretty with vision, so we convert sounds into numbers and images. This textbook explanation of sound is self-explanatory, as to how humans and most inhabitants of earth perceive sound. “Sound is a vibration that propagates as an audible wave of pressure, through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid” Machines today are capable of classifying different sounds. One good application is the sound classification.

But how does this technology work? As complicated as it seems, speech synthesis is backed by many complex algorithms that do more than just synthesis, but analyse the sound and produces insights. Voice assistants today are more than just audio encyclopedias - they can also bark, meow and whine like cute animals.

Speech synthesis as a technology has already entered the common households as a powerhouse for many voice-operated devices including virtual assistants like Alexa, Google Assistant, Cortana and Siri.
