• Title: Relational Teacher Student Learning with Neural Label Embedding for Device Adaptation in Acoustic Scene Classification
• Authors: Hu Hu, Sabato Marco Siniscalchi, Yannan Wang, Chin-Hui Lee
• Abstract summary: We propose a domain adaptation framework to address the device mismatch issue in acoustic scene classification. Taking into account the structural relationships between acoustic scene classes, our proposed framework captures such relationships which are intrinsically device-independent. In the training stage, transferable knowledge is condensed in NLE from the source domain. In the adaptation stage, a novel RTSL strategy is adopted to learn adapted target models without using paired source-target data.

• Abstract: In this paper, we propose a domain adaptation framework to address the device mismatch issue in acoustic scene classification leveraging upon neural label embedding (NLE) and relational teacher student learning (RTSL). Taking into account the structural relationships between acoustic scene classes, our proposed framework captures such relationships which are intrinsically device-independent. In the training stage, transferable knowledge is condensed in NLE from the source domain. Next in the adaptation stage, a novel RTSL strategy is adopted to learn adapted target models without using paired source-target data often required in conventional teacher student learning. The proposed framework is evaluated on the DCASE 2018 Task1b data set. Experimental results based on AlexNet-L deep classification models confirm the effectiveness of our proposed approach for mismatch situations. NLE-alone adaptation compares favourably with the conventional device adaptation and teacher student based adaptation techniques. NLE with RTSL further improves the classification accuracy.

  We propose an Domain Informed Adaptation (IDA) model, a self-training framework that mixes the data based on class-level segmentation performance. In our IDA model, the class-level performance is tracked by an expected confidence score (ECS) and we then use a dynamic schedule to determine the mixing ratio for data in different domains. Our proposed method is able to outperform the state-of-the-art UDA-SS method by a margin of 1.1 mIoU in the adaptation of GTA-V to Cityscapes and of 0.9 mIoU in the adaptation of SYNTHIA to City

  Machine learning algorithms can be negatively affected by mismatches between training (source) and test (target) data distributions. We propose an unsupervised domain adaptation method that consists of aligning the first- and second-order sample statistics of each frequency band of target-domain acoustic scenes to the ones of the source-domain training dataset. We show that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised methods found in the literature in terms of both source- and target-domain classification accuracy.
