Sonification is the process of converting data into non-speech audio signals. It is used to represent information and facilitate understanding through sound. This process can involve transforming numerical data or other forms of information into auditory displays, allowing users to perceive trends, patterns, and anomalies through auditory means. Sonification can be applied in various fields, including scientific research, medical diagnostics, data analysis, and even in artistic contexts.
