To improve device robustness, a highly desirable key feature of a competitive data-driven acoustic scene classification (ASC) system, a novel two-stage system based on fully convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is proposed. Our two-stage system leverages on an ad-hoc score combination based on two CNN classifiers: (i) the first CNN classifies acoustic inputs into one of three broad classes, and (ii) the second CNN classifies the same inputs into one of ten finer-grained classes. Three different CNN architectures are explored to implement the two-stage classifiers, and a frequency sub-sampling scheme is investigated. Moreover, novel data augmentation schemes for ASC are also investigated. Evaluated on DCASE 2020 Task 1a, our results show that the proposed ASC system attains a state-of-the-art accuracy on the development set, where our best system, a two-stage fusion of CNN ensembles, delivers a 81.9% average accuracy among multi-device test data, and it obtains a significant improvement on unseen devices. Finally, neural saliency analysis with class activation mapping (CAM) gives new insights on the patterns learnt by our models.

In this technical report, we present a joint effort of four groups, namely GT, USTC, Tencent, and UKE, to tackle Task 1 - Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) in the DCASE 2020 Challenge. Task 1 comprises two different sub-tasks: (i) Task 1a focuses o n ASC of audio signals recorded with multiple (real and simulated) devices into ten different fine-grained classes, and (ii) Task 1b concerns with classification of data into three higher-level classes using low-complexity solutions. For Task 1a, we propose a novel two-stage ASC system leveraging upon ad-hoc score combination of two convolutional neural networks (CNNs), classifying the acoustic input according to three classes, and then ten classes, respectively. Four different CNN-based architectures are explored to implement the two-stage classifiers, and several data augmentation techniques are also investigated. For Task 1b, we leverage upon a quantization method to reduce the complexity of two of our top-accuracy three-classes CNN-based architectures. On Task 1a development data set, an ASC accuracy of 76.9% is attained using our best single classifier and data augmentation. An accuracy of 81.9% is then attained by a final model fusion of our two-stage ASC classifiers. On Task 1b development data set, we achieve an accuracy of 96.7% with a model size smaller than 500KB.

Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) aims to classify the environment in which the audio signals are recorded. Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been successfully applied to ASC. However, the data distributions of the audio signals r ecorded with multiple devices are different. There has been little research on the training of robust neural networks on acoustic scene datasets recorded with multiple devices, and on explaining the operation of the internal layers of the neural networks. In this article, we focus on training and explaining device-robust CNNs on multi-device acoustic scene data. We propose conditional atrous CNNs with attention for multi-device ASC. Our proposed system contains an ASC branch and a device classification branch, both modelled by CNNs. We visualise and analyse the intermediate layers of the atrous CNNs. A time-frequency attention mechanism is employed to analyse the contribution of each time-frequency bin of the feature maps in the CNNs. On the Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events (DCASE) 2018 ASC dataset, recorded with three devices, our proposed model performs significantly better than CNNs trained on single-device data.

In a recent acoustic scene classification (ASC) research field, training and test device channel mismatch have become an issue for the real world implementation. To address the issue, this paper proposes a channel domain conversion using factorized h ierarchical variational autoencoder. Proposed method adapts both the source and target domain to a pre-defined specific domain. Unlike the conventional approach, the relationship between the target and source domain and information of each domain are not required in the adaptation process. Based on the experimental results using the IEEE detection and classification of acoustic scenes and event 2018 task 1-B dataset and the baseline system, it is shown that the proposed approach can mitigate the channel mismatching issue of different recording devices.

This thesis focuses on dealing with the task of acoustic scene classification (ASC), and then applied the techniques developed for ASC to a real-life application of detecting respiratory disease. To deal with ASC challenges, this thesis addresses thr ee main factors that directly affect the performance of an ASC system. Firstly, this thesis explores input features by making use of multiple spectrograms (log-mel, Gamma, and CQT) for low-level feature extraction to tackle the issue of insufficiently discriminative or descriptive input features. Next, a novel Encoder network architecture is introduced. The Encoder firstly transforms each low-level spectrogram into high-level intermediate features, or embeddings, and thus combines these high-level features to form a very distinct composite feature. The composite or combined feature is then explored in terms of classification performance, with different Decoders such as Random Forest (RF), Multilayer Perception (MLP), and Mixture of Experts (MoE). By using this Encoder-Decoder framework, it helps to reduce the computation cost of the reference process in ASC systems which make use of multiple spectrogram inputs. Since the proposed techniques applied for general ASC tasks were shown to be highly effective, this inspired an application to a specific real-life application. This was namely the 2017 Internal Conference on Biomedical Health Informatics (ICBHI) respiratory sound dataset. Building upon the proposed ASC framework, the ICBHI tasks were tackled with a deep learning framework, and the resulting system shown to be capable at detecting respiratory anomaly cycles and diseases.
In this paper, we presents a low-complexity deep learning frameworks for acoustic scene classification (ASC). The proposed framework can be separated into three main steps: Front-end spectrogram extraction, back-end classification, and late fusion of predicted probabilities. First, we use Mel filter, Gammatone filter and Constant Q Transfrom (CQT) to transform raw audio signal into spectrograms, where both frequency and temporal features are presented. Three spectrograms are then fed into three individual back-end convolutional neural networks (CNNs), classifying into ten urban scenes. Finally, a late fusion of three predicted probabilities obtained from three CNNs is conducted to achieve the final classification result. To reduce the complexity of our proposed CNN network, we apply two model compression techniques: model restriction and decomposed convolution. Our extensive experiments, which are conducted on DCASE 2021 (IEEE AASP Challenge on Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events) Task 1A development dataset, achieve a low-complexity CNN based framework with 128 KB trainable parameters and the best classification accuracy of 66.7%, improving DCASE baseline by 19.0%
