YouTube says it is similar to programming of detecting objects in images,but for object recognition they faced hurdles. For just those three sounds, the program is set by YouTube engineers in which they had to teach the program for detecting these sounds. They separate them temporarily after that inserted the recognized sound into the captions. Engineers are working to enhance the system thus the sound effects occurring at the same can also be recognized by system i.e Laughter and talking.  Another challenge was to find a large enough data set to train the system that wasn’t already adequately labeled by manually inputting the data.
