Environmental Sound Classification (ESC) is a challenging field of research in non-speech audio processing. Most of current research in ESC focuses on designing deep models with special architectures tailored for specific audio datasets,…

Multi-contrast images are commonly acquired together to maximize complementary diagnostic information, albeit at the expense of longer scan times. A time-efficient strategy to acquire high-quality multi-contrast images is to accelerate…

We propose a framework using contrastive learning as a pre-training task to perform image classification in the presence of noisy labels. Recent strategies such as pseudo-labeling, sample selection with Gaussian Mixture models, weighted…

Contrastive learning has significantly improved representation quality, enhancing knowledge transfer across tasks in continual learning (CL). However, catastrophic forgetting remains a key challenge, as contrastive based methods primarily…

The success of contextual word representations and advances in neural information retrieval have made dense vector-based retrieval a standard approach for passage and document ranking. While effective and efficient, dual-encoders are…

Trigger-word detection plays an important role as the entry point of user's communication with voice assistants. But supporting a particular word as a trigger-word involves huge amount of data collection, augmentation and labelling for that…

The language models, especially the basic text classification models, have been shown to be susceptible to textual adversarial attacks such as synonym substitution and word insertion attacks. To defend against such attacks, a growing body…

Continuously learning new classes without catastrophic forgetting is a challenging problem for on-device acoustic event classification given the restrictions on computation resources (e.g., model size, running memory). To alleviate such an…

Understanding why a classification model prefers one class over another for an input instance is the challenge of contrastive explanation. This work implements concept-based contrastive explanations for image classification by leveraging…

Voice assistants are now widely available, and to activate them a keyword spotting (KWS) algorithm is used. Modern KWS systems are mainly trained using supervised learning methods and require a large amount of labelled data to achieve a…

Recently, some contrastive learning methods have been proposed to simultaneously learn representations and clustering assignments, achieving significant improvements. However, these methods do not take the category information and…

Sound source localization (SSL) is the task of locating the source of sound within an image. Due to the lack of localization labels, the de facto standard in SSL has been to represent an image and audio as a single embedding vector each,…

Randomized smoothing (RS) is an effective and scalable technique for constructing neural network classifiers that are certifiably robust to adversarial perturbations. Most RS works focus on training a good base model that boosts the…

Although prior work in computer vision has shown strong correlations between in-distribution (ID) and out-of-distribution (OOD) accuracies, such relationships remain underexplored in audio-based models. In this study, we investigate how…

Existing rumor detection methods often neglect the content within images as well as the inherent relationships between contexts and images across different visual scales, thereby resulting in the loss of critical information pertinent to…

Consistency regularization is a commonly used practice to encourage the model to generate consistent representation from distorted input features and improve model generalization. It shows significant improvement on various speech…

Distance-based anomaly detection methods rely on compact in-distribution (ID) embeddings that are well separated from anomalies. However, conventional contrastive learning strategies often struggle to achieve this balance, either promoting…

Speaker diarization remains challenging due to the need for structured speaker representations, efficient modeling, and robustness to varying conditions. We propose a performant, compact diarization framework that integrates conformer…

It's well-known that inverse problems are ill-posed and to solve them meaningfully one has to employ regularization methods. Traditionally, popular regularization methods have been the penalized Variational approaches. In recent years, the…

We consider the problem of training a model under the presence of label noise. Current approaches identify samples with potentially incorrect labels and reduce their influence on the learning process by either assigning lower weights to…
