• Abstract summary: Acoustic scene classification (ASC) is one of the most popular problems in the field of machine listening. The subtask presented in this report corresponds to a ASC problem that is constrained by the complexity of the model. Specifically, a system based on two steps is proposed: a two-dimensional representation of the audio using the Gamamtone filter bank and a convolutional neural network.

• Abstract: Acoustic scene classification (ASC) is one of the most popular problems in the field of machine listening. The objective of this problem is to classify an audio clip into one of the predefined scenes using only the audio data. This problem has considerably progressed over the years in the different editions of DCASE. It usually has several subtasks that allow to tackle this problem with different approaches. The subtask presented in this report corresponds to a ASC problem that is constrained by the complexity of the model as well as having audio recorded from different devices, known as mismatch devices (real and simulated). The work presented in this report follows the research line carried out by the team in previous years. Specifically, a system based on two steps is proposed: a two-dimensional representation of the audio using the Gamamtone filter bank and a convolutional neural network using squeeze-excitation techniques. The presented system outperforms the baseline by about 17 percentage points.

  Audio-Visual (AVS) aims to precisely outline audible objects in a visual scene at the pixel level. Existing AVS methods require fine-grained annotations of audio-mask pairs in supervised learning fashion. We introduce unsupervised audio-visual segmentation with no need for task-specific data annotations and model training.

  This paper uses contrastive learning to refine audio representations for each machine ID, rather than for each audio sample. The proposed two-stage method uses contrastive learning to pretrain the audio representation model. Experiments show that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods using contrastive learning or self-supervised classification.

  Machine learning algorithms, when trained on audio recordings from a limited set of devices, may not generalize well to samples recorded using other devices with different frequency responses. In this work, a relatively straightforward method is introduced to address this problem. Two variants of the approach are presented. First requires aligned examples from multiple devices, the second approach alleviates this requirement.

  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.
