Abstract

An extended robust independent components analysis algorithm based on cumulants is applied to identify vibrational alarm signals generated by soldier termites (reticulitermes grassei) from background noise. A seismic accelerometer is employed to characterize acoustic emissions. To support the proposed technique, vibrational signals from a low cost microphone were masked by white uniform noise. Results confirm the validity of the method, taken as the basis for the development of a low cost, non-invasive, termite detection system. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
