Abstract: Provided is an intelligent system for search and rescue in a special environment such as a disaster, including a body surface feature extracting apparatus, a vital sign extracting apparatus, a speech feature extracting apparatus and a network transmission apparatus that are successively in communication connection with one another. The body surface feature extracting apparatus uses a gated recurrent unit (GRU) network model for transmission and storage. The speech feature extracting apparatus includes a sound collecting module, a sound feature extracting module and a sound analyzing and processing module that are successively in communication connection with one another, with the sound analyzing and processing module being provided with a noise database comprising a plurality of ambient sounds.
