🎵 Urban-Sound-Classification-with-UrbanSound8K-Dataset 🔊🤖

Urban-Sound-Classification-with-UrbanSound8K-Dataset is a deep learning project that classifies urban sound events (sirens, drilling, dog barks, street music, etc.) using the UrbanSound8K dataset. It demonstrates how audio signal processing + neural networks can power sound recognition systems for smart cities, surveillance, and real-time monitoring.
