Recently, many attention-based deep neural networks have emerged and achieved state-of-the-art performance in environmental sound classification. The essence of attention mechanism is assigning contribution weights on different parts of features, namely channels, spectral or spatial contents, and temporal frames. In this paper, we propose an effective convolutional neural network structure with a multi-channel temporal attention (MCTA) block, which applies a temporal attention mechanism within each channel of the embedded features to extract channel-wise relevant temporal information. This multi-channel temporal attention structure will result in a distinct attention vector for each channel, which enables the network to fully exploit the relevant temporal information in different channels. The datasets used to test our model include ESC-50 and its subset ESC-10, along with development sets of DCASE 2018 and 2019. In our experiments, MCTA performed better than the single-channel temporal attention model and the non-attention model with the same number of parameters. Furthermore, we compared our model with some successful attention-based models and obtained competitive results with a relatively lighter network.

This paper proposes a Sub-band Convolutional Neural Network for spoken term classification. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have proven to be very effective in acoustic applications such as spoken term classification, keyword spotting, speaker i
dentification, acoustic event detection, etc. Unlike applications in computer vision, the spatial invariance property of 2D convolutional kernels does not fit acoustic applications well since the meaning of a specific 2D kernel varies a lot along the feature axis in an input feature map. We propose a sub-band CNN architecture to apply different convolutional kernels on each feature sub-band, which makes the overall computation more efficient. Experimental results show that the computational efficiency brought by sub-band CNN is more beneficial for small-footprint models. Compared to a baseline full band CNN for spoken term classification on a publicly available Speech Commands dataset, the proposed sub-band CNN architecture reduces the computation by 39.7% on commands classification, and 49.3% on digits classification with accuracy maintained.
Multi-stage learning is an effective technique to invoke multiple deep-learning modules sequentially. This paper applies multi-stage learning to speech enhancement by using a multi-stage structure, where each stage comprises a self-attention (SA) blo
ck followed by stacks of temporal convolutional network (TCN) blocks with doubling dilation factors. Each stage generates a prediction that is refined in a subsequent stage. A fusion block is inserted at the input of later stages to re-inject original information. The resulting multi-stage speech enhancement system, in short, multi-stage SA-TCN, is compared with state-of-the-art deep-learning speech enhancement methods using the LibriSpeech and VCTK data sets. The multi-stage SA-TCN systems hyper-parameters are fine-tuned, and the impact of the SA block, the fusion block and the number of stages are determined. The use of a multi-stage SA-TCN system as a front-end for automatic speech recognition systems is investigated as well. It is shown that the multi-stage SA-TCN systems perform well relative to other state-of-the-art systems in terms of speech enhancement and speech recognition scores.
Audio classification is considered as a challenging problem in pattern recognition. Recently, many algorithms have been proposed using deep neural networks. In this paper, we introduce a new attention-based neural network architecture called Classifi
er-Attention-Based Convolutional Neural Network (CAB-CNN). The algorithm uses a newly designed architecture consisting of a list of simple classifiers and an attention mechanism as a classifier selector. This design significantly reduces the number of parameters required by the classifiers and thus their complexities. In this way, it becomes easier to train the classifiers and achieve a high and steady performance. Our claims are corroborated by the experimental results. Compared to the state-of-the-art algorithms, our algorithm achieves more than 10% improvements on all selected test scores.
In this paper, the Brno University of Technology (BUT) team submissions for Task 1 (Acoustic Scene Classification, ASC) of the DCASE-2018 challenge are described. Also, the analysis of different methods on the leaderboard set is provided. The propose
d approach is a fusion of two different Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) topologies. The first one is the common two-dimensional CNNs which is mainly used in image classification. The second one is a one-dimensional CNN for extracting fixed-length audio segment embeddings, so called x-vectors, which has also been used in speech processing, especially for speaker recognition. In addition to the different topologies, two types of features were tested: log mel-spectrogram and CQT features. Finally, the outputs of different systems are fused using a simple output averaging in the best performing system. Our submissions ranked third among 24 teams in the ASC sub-task A (task1a).
Attention-based beamformers have recently been shown to be effective for multi-channel speech recognition. However, they are less capable at capturing local information. In this work, we propose a 2D Conv-Attention module which combines convolution n
eural networks with attention for beamforming. We apply self- and cross-attention to explicitly model the correlations within and between the input channels. The end-to-end 2D Conv-Attention model is compared with a multi-head self-attention and superdirective-based neural beamformers. We train and evaluate on an in-house multi-channel dataset. The results show a relative improvement of 3.8% in WER by the proposed model over the baseline neural beamformer.
