1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving audio data from a sensor of a monitoring system;
determining, using the audio data, an audio feature using an audio analytics classifier, wherein: the audio analytics classifier is an escalation classifier, and determining the audio feature using the audio analytics classifier comprises;
detecting an increase in an average signal power; and
determining, using the escalation classifier, whether the increase in the average signal power of the audio data over a time period satisfies a threshold;
determining whether an alert condition is satisfied using the audio feature that indicates whether the detected increased average signal power of the audio data over the time period satisfies the threshold;
in response to determining that the alert condition is satisfied, activating a camera of the monitoring system to obtain video data;
receiving the video data from the camera;
determining, using the video data, whether a security event associated with the alert condition exists; and
in response to determining that the security event associated with the alert condition exists, performing a monitoring action.
