Abstract
A method for the acoustic analysis of a machine (M) including the acquisition of at least one acoustic signal supplied by at least one microphone (7) positioned in the machine, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: separation of at least one acoustic signal into a plurality of sound sources, the signal being modelled as a mixture of components, each one corresponding to a sound source; for at least one separated sound source, determination of a characteristic acoustic signature; comparison of at least one characteristic acoustic signature with at least one reference acoustic signature recorded in a reference database (5).

11. A method for the acoustic analysis of a machine including a step of acquiring at least one acoustic signal supplied by at least one microphone positioned in the machine, wherein the method further comprises the steps of:
-
separating of the at least one acquired acoustic signal into a plurality of sound sources, said at least one acquired acoustic signal being modelled as a mixture of components, each one corresponding to a sound source; for at least one of the separated sound sources, determining a characteristic acoustic signature; comparing the at least one characteristic acoustic signature with at least one reference acoustic signature recorded in a reference database. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20)

19. A system for the acoustic analysis of a machine, including means for acquiring at least one acoustic signal supplied by at least one microphone positioned in the machine, and a reference database in which is recorded at least one reference acoustic signature, the system further comprising:
-
a module for separating sources configured to separate the at least one acoustic signal into a plurality of sound sources, said at least one acoustic signal being modelled as a mixture of components each one corresponding to a sound source; a module for determining an acoustic signature configured to determine at least one characteristic acoustic signature of at least one of the separated sound source; a module for comparing acoustic signatures configured to compare at least one characteristic acoustic signature with at least one reference acoustic signature recorded in the reference database.
