I apologize if this is the wrong newsgroup, but I am interested in
sound recognition.  Can speech recognition software be used to
identify specific sounds?  For example and somewhat facetiously,
let say that I want to associate the various squeaks that a model
of automobile makes with a problem.  Could speech recognition tools
be used then to diagnose an unknown squeak?  If so, which softwares
might be best?  TIA

"You see, one thing is, I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not
knowing.  I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to
have answers which might be wrong.  I have approximate answers and
possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things,
but I'm not absolutely sure of anything and there are many things I don't
know anything about..."
