We present a multimodal framework to learn general audio representations from videos. Existing contrastive audio representation learning methods mainly focus on using the audio modality alone during training. In this work, we show that additional information contained in video can be utilized to greatly improve the learned features. First, we demonstrate that our contrastive framework does not require high resolution images to learn good audio features. This allows us to scale up the training batch size, while keeping the computational load incurred by the additional video modality to a reasonable level. Second, we use augmentations that mix together different samples. We show that this is effective to make the proxy task harder, which leads to substantial performance improvements when increasing the batch size. As a result, our audio model achieves a state-of-the-art of 42.4 mAP on the AudioSet classification downstream task, closing the gap between supervised and self-supervised methods trained on the same dataset. Moreover, we show that our method is advantageous on a broad range of non-semantic audio tasks, including speaker identification, keyword spotting, language identification, and music instrument classification.

Large performance degradation is often observed for speaker ver-ification systems when applied to a new domain dataset. Givenan unlabeled target-domain dataset, unsupervised domain adaptation(UDA) methods, which usually leverage adversarial training
strate-gies, are commonly used to bridge the performance gap caused bythe domain mismatch. However, such adversarial training strategyonly uses the distribution information of target domain data and cannot ensure the performance improvement on the target domain. Inthis paper, we incorporate self-supervised learning strategy to the un-supervised domain adaptation system and proposed a self-supervisedlearning based domain adaptation approach (SSDA). Compared tothe traditional UDA method, the new SSDA training strategy canfully leverage the potential label information from target domainand adapt the speaker discrimination ability from source domainsimultaneously. We evaluated the proposed approach on the Vox-Celeb (labeled source domain) and CnCeleb (unlabeled target do-main) datasets, and the best SSDA system obtains 10.2% Equal ErrorRate (EER) on the CnCeleb dataset without using any speaker labelson CnCeleb, which also can achieve the state-of-the-art results onthis corpus.
This paper thoroughly analyses the effect of different input representations on polyphonic multi-instrument music transcription. We use our own GPU based spectrogram extraction tool, nnAudio, to investigate the influence of using a linear-frequency s
pectrogram, log-frequency spectrogram, Mel spectrogram, and constant-Q transform (CQT). Our results show that a $8.33$% increase in transcription accuracy and a $9.39$% reduction in error can be obtained by choosing the appropriate input representation (log-frequency spectrogram with STFT window length 4,096 and 2,048 frequency bins in the spectrogram) without changing the neural network design (single layer fully connected). Our experiments also show that Mel spectrogram is a compact representation for which we can reduce the number of frequency bins to only 512 while still keeping a relatively high music transcription accuracy.
Given the recent surge in developments of deep learning, this article provides a review of the state-of-the-art deep learning techniques for audio signal processing. Speech, music, and environmental sound processing are considered side-by-side, in or
der to point out similarities and differences between the domains, highlighting general methods, problems, key references, and potential for cross-fertilization between areas. The dominant feature representations (in particular, log-mel spectra and raw waveform) and deep learning models are reviewed, including convolutional neural networks, variants of the long short-term memory architecture, as well as more audio-specific neural network models. Subsequently, prominent deep learning application areas are covered, i.e. audio recognition (automatic speech recognition, music information retrieval, environmental sound detection, localization and tracking) and synthesis and transformation (source separation, audio enhancement, generative models for speech, sound, and music synthesis). Finally, key issues and future questions regarding deep learning applied to audio signal processing are identified.
We present a learning-based approach for generating binaural audio from mono audio using multi-task learning. Our formulation leverages additional information from two related tasks: the binaural audio generation task and the flipped audio classifica
tion task. Our learning model extracts spatialization features from the visual and audio input, predicts the left and right audio channels, and judges whether the left and right channels are flipped. First, we extract visual features using ResNet from the video frames. Next, we perform binaural audio generation and flipped audio classification using separate subnetworks based on visual features. Our learning method optimizes the overall loss based on the weighted sum of the losses of the two tasks. We train and evaluate our model on the FAIR-Play dataset and the YouTube-ASMR dataset. We perform quantitative and qualitative evaluations to demonstrate the benefits of our approach over prior techniques.
Recent advances suggest the advantage of multi-modal training in comparison with single-modal methods. In contrast to this view, in our work we find that similar gain can be obtained from training with different formats of a single modality. In parti
cular, we investigate the use of the contrastive learning framework to learn audio representations by maximizing the agreement between the raw audio and its spectral representation. We find a significant gain using this multi-format strategy against the single-format counterparts. Moreover, on the downstream AudioSet and ESC-50 classification task, our audio-only approach achieves new state-of-the-art results with a mean average precision of 0.376 and an accuracy of 90.5%, respectively.
