Sound event localization and detection (SELD) aims to determine the appearance of sound classes, together with their Direction of Arrival (DOA). However, current SELD systems can only predict the activities of specific classes, for example,…
Sound event detection (SED) entails identifying the type of sound and estimating its temporal boundaries from acoustic signals. These events are uniquely characterized by their spatio-temporal features, which are determined by the way they…
Acoustic Event Classification (AEC) has become a significant task for machines to perceive the surrounding auditory scene. However, extracting effective representations that capture the underlying characteristics of the acoustic events is…
This paper introduces a zero-shot sound event classification (ZS-SEC) method to identify sound events that have never occurred in training data. In our previous work, we proposed a ZS-SEC method using sound attribute vectors (SAVs), where a…
Advances in deep learning have resulted in state-of-the-art performance for many audio classification tasks but, unlike humans, these systems traditionally require large amounts of data to make accurate predictions. Not every person or…
Most sound event detection (SED) systems perform well on clean datasets but degrade significantly in noisy environments. Language-queried audio source separation (LASS) models show promise for robust SED by separating target events;…
In conventional sound event detection (SED) models, two types of events, namely, those that are present and those that do not occur in an acoustic scene, are regarded as the same type of events. The conventional SED methods cannot…
We propose a new task for sound event detection (SED): sound event triage (SET). The goal of SET is to detect an arbitrary number of high-priority event classes while allowing misdetections of low-priority event classes where the priority…
In this paper, we propose a new Sound Event Classification (SEC) method which is inspired in recent works for out-of-distribution detection. In our method, we analyse all the activations of a generic CNN in order to produce feature…
Detection of common events and scenes from audio is useful for extracting and understanding human contexts in daily life. Prior studies have shown that leveraging knowledge from a relevant domain is beneficial for a target acoustic event…
Sound event detection (SED) aims at identifying audio events (audio tagging task) in recordings and then locating them temporally (localization task). This last task ends with the segmentation of the frame-level class predictions, that…
The process of identifying human emotion and affective states from speech is known as speech emotion recognition (SER). This is based on the observation that tone and pitch in the voice frequently convey underlying emotion. Speech…
Sound event detection is an important facet of audio tagging that aims to identify sounds of interest and define both the sound category and time boundaries for each sound event in a continuous recording. With advances in deep neural…
In this paper, we propose a study on multi-modal (audio and video) action spotting and classification in soccer videos. Action spotting and classification are the tasks that consist in finding the temporal anchors of events in a video and…
Audio Event Recognition (AER) traditionally focuses on detecting and identifying audio events. Most existing AER models tend to detect all potential events without considering their varying significance across different contexts. This makes…
We propose a novel multi-task pre-training method for Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). We pre-train SER model simultaneously on Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and sentiment classification tasks to make the acoustic ASR model more…
Sound event localization and detection (SELD) combines two subtasks: sound event detection (SED) and direction of arrival (DOA) estimation. SELD is usually tackled as an audio-only problem, but visual information has been recently included.…
This paper presents the sound event localization and detection (SELD) task setup for the DCASE 2019 challenge. The goal of the SELD task is to detect the temporal activities of a known set of sound event classes, and further localize them…
While direction of arrival (DOA) of sound events is generally estimated from multichannel audio data recorded in a microphone array, sound events usually derive from visually perceptible source objects, e.g., sounds of footsteps come from…
Wearable audio devices with active noise control (ANC) enhance listening comfort but often at the expense of situational awareness. However, this auditory isolation may mask crucial environmental cues, posing significant safety risks. To…
