Audio classification- complete newbie!

Hello

I have only just started using Matlab and want to learn how to create a model that can differentiate between, for example, human speech and a car engine. I have opened the classification learner app and have a sound file library with plenty of examples of both noise types, however I don't know how to load these to Matlab for classification/ feature selection. It is my understanding that only spreadsheet type data can be entered, however how would one go about entering data from audio?

Any help is much appreciated,

P

When you have no idea what function might help you, learn to use lookfor. In this case, I might advise starting with

lookfor audio

Is there anything that might be of help in what you see?
