Acoustic scene classification is an automatic listening problem that aims to assign an audio recording to a pre-defined scene based on its audio data. Over the years (and in past editions of the DCASE) this problem has often been solved…

Various attention mechanisms are being widely applied to acoustic scene classification. However, we empirically found that the attention mechanism can excessively discard potentially valuable information, despite improving performance. We…
