While the Self-Attention mechanism in the Transformer model has proven to be effective in many domains, we observe that it is less effective in more diverse settings (e.g. multimodality) due to the varying granularity of each token and the…

Transformer-based audio self-supervised learning (SSL) models commonly use spectrograms, vision-style Transformers, and masked modeling objectives. However, convolutional patchification with temporal downsampling lowers the effective…
