In recent years, the involvement of synthetic strongly labeled data,weakly labeled data and unlabeled data has drawn much research attentionin semi-supervised sound event detection (SSED). Self-training models carry out predictions without strong annotations and then take predictions with high probabilities as pseudo-labels for retraining. Such models have shown its effectiveness in SSED. However, probabilities are poorly calibrated confidence estimates, and samples with low probabilities are ignored. Hence, we introduce a method of learning confidence deliberately and retaining all data distinctly by applying confidence as weights. Additionally, linear pooling has been considered as a state-of-the-art aggregation function for SSED with weak labeling. In this paper, we propose a power pooling function whose coefficient can be trained automatically to achieve nonlinearity. A confidencebased semi-supervised sound event detection (C-SSED) framework is designed to combine confidence and power pooling. The experimental results demonstrate that confidence is proportional to the accuracy of the predictions. The power pooling function outperforms linear pooling at both error rate and F1 results. In addition, the C-SSED framework achieves a relative error rate reduction of 34% in contrast to the baseline model.

In this paper, we present a method called HODGEPODGEfootnotemark[1] for large-scale detection of sound events using weakly labeled, synthetic, and unlabeled data proposed in the Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events (DCASE) 2019 challenge Task 4: Sound event detection in domestic environments. To perform this task, we adopted the convolutional recurrent neural networks (CRNN) as our backbone network. In order to deal with a small amount of tagged data and a large amounts of unlabeled in-domain data, we aim to focus primarily on how to apply semi-supervise learning methods efficiently to make full use of limited data. Three semi-supervised learning principles have been used in our system, including: 1) Consistency regularization applies data augmentation; 2) MixUp regularizer requiring that the predictions for a interpolation of two inputs is close to the interpolation of the prediction for each individual input; 3) MixUp regularization applies to interpolation between data augmentations. We also tried an ensemble of various models, which are trained by using different semi-supervised learning principles. Our proposed approach significantly improved the performance of the baseline, achieving the event-based f-measure of 42.0% compared to 25.8% event-based f-measure of the baseline in the provided official evaluation dataset. Our submissions ranked third among 18 teams in the task 4.
This paper presents DCASE 2018 task 4. The task evaluates systems for the large-scale detection of sound events using weakly labeled data (without time boundaries). The target of the systems is to provide not only the event class but also the event t ime boundaries given that multiple events can be present in an audio recording. Another challenge of the task is to explore the possibility to exploit a large amount of unbalanced and unlabeled training data together with a small weakly labeled training set to improve system performance. The data are Youtube video excerpts from domestic context which have many applications such as ambient assisted living. The domain was chosen due to the scientific challenges (wide variety of sounds, time-localized events.. .) and potential industrial applications .

Task 4 of the DCASE2018 challenge demonstrated that substantially more research is needed for a real-world application of sound event detection. Analyzing the challenge results it can be seen that most successful models are biased towards predicting long (e.g., over 5s) clips. This work aims to investigate the performance impact of fixed-sized window median filter post-processing and advocate the use of double thresholding as a more robust and predictable post-processing method. Further, four different temporal subsampling methods within the CRNN framework are proposed: mean-max, alpha-mean-max, Lp-norm and convolutional. We show that for this task subsampling the temporal resolution by a neural network enhances the F1 score as well as its robustness towards short, sporadic sound events. Our best single model achieves 30.1% F1 on the evaluation set and the best fusion model 32.5%, while being robust to event length variations.
Access to large corpora with strongly labelled sound events is expensive and difficult in engineering applications. Much research turns to address the problem of how to detect both the types and the timestamps of sound events with weak labels that on ly specify the types. This task can be treated as a multiple instance learning (MIL) problem, and the key to it is the design of a pooling function. In this paper, we propose an adaptive power pooling function which can automatically adapt to various sound sources. On two public datasets, the proposed power pooling function outperforms the state-of-the-art linear softmax pooling on both coarsegrained and fine-grained metrics. Notably, it improves the event-based F1 score (which evaluates the detection of event onsets and offsets) by 11.4% and 10.2% relative on the two datasets. While this paper focuses on sound event detection applications, the proposed method can be applied to MIL tasks in other domains.

In this paper, we describe in detail our systems for DCASE 2020 Task 4. The systems are based on the 1st-place system of DCASE 2019 Task 4, which adopts weakly-supervised framework with an attention-based embedding-level pooling module and a semi-sup ervised learning approach named guided learning. This year, we incorporate multi-branch learning (MBL) into the original system to further improve its performance. MBL uses different branches with different pooling strategies (including instance-level and embedding-level strategies) and different pooling modules (including attention pooling, global max pooling or global average pooling modules), which share the same feature encoder of the model. Therefore, multiple branches pursuing different purposes and focusing on different characteristics of the data can help the feature encoder model the feature space better and avoid over-fitting. To better exploit the strongly-labeled synthetic data, inspired by multi-task learning, we also employ a sound event detection branch. To combine sound separation (SS) with sound event detection (SED), we fuse the results of SED systems with SS-SED systems which are trained using separated sound output by an SS system. The experimental results prove that MBL can improve the model performance and using SS has great potential to improve the performance of SED ensemble system.
