This happens due to different in length, amplitude, background noise, and sample rate. This problem can be encountered by extracting speech related information using Spectogram. It can show change in amplitude spectra over time. For example in diagram below: X Axis : TimeY Axis : FrequencyZ Axis : Colour intensity represents magnitude | |
