Performing sound event detection on real-world recordings often implies dealing with overlapping target sound events and non-target sounds, also referred to as interference or noise. Until now these problems were mainly tackled at the…

Sound event detection (SED) methods typically rely on either strongly labelled data or weakly labelled data. As an alternative, sequentially labelled data (SLD) was proposed. In SLD, the events and the order of events in audio clips are…

Machine learning algorithms, when trained on audio recordings from a limited set of devices, may not generalize well to samples recorded using other devices with different frequency responses. In this work, a relatively straightforward…
