Learning to Detect Novel and Fine-Grained Acoustic Sequences Using Pretrained Audio Representations
This work investigates pre-trained audio representations for few shot Sound Event Detection. We specifically address the task of few shot detection of novel acoustic sequences, or sound events with semantically meaningful temporal structure, without assuming access to non-target audio. We develop procedures for pre-training suitable representations, and methods which transfer them to our few shot learning scenario. Our experiments evaluate the general purpose utility of our pre-trained representations on AudioSet, and the utility of proposed few shot methods via tasks constructed from…
Estimating dimensional emotions, such as activation, valence and dominance, from acoustic speech signals has been widely explored over the past few years. While accurate estimation of activation and dominance from speech seem to be possible, the same for valence remains challenging. Previous research has shown that the use of lexical…
Device-directed speech detection (DDSD) is a binary classification task that separates the user’s queries to a voice assistant (VA) from background speech or side conversations. This is important for achieving naturalistic user experience. To this end, we propose knowledge distillation (KD) to enhance DDSD accuracy while ensuring efficient deployment. Specifically,…
Pre-trained model representations have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in speech recognition, natural language processing, and other applications. Speech models, such as Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) and Hidden units BERT (HuBERT), have enabled generating lexical and acoustic representations to benefit speech recognition applications. We investigated the use of pre-trained model…
