• Abstract summary: This report makes a comparative study of two different network architectures: conventional CNN and Conv-mixer. Although both networks exceed the baseline required by the competition, the conventional CNN shows a higher performance. Solutions based on Conv-mixer architectures show worse performance although they are much lighter solutions.

• Abstract: Acoustic scene classification is an automatic listening problem that aims to assign an audio recording to a pre-defined scene based on its audio data. Over the years (and in past editions of the DCASE) this problem has often been solved with techniques known as ensembles (use of several machine learning models to combine their predictions in the inference phase). While these solutions can show performance in terms of accuracy, they can be very expensive in terms of computational capacity, making it impossible to deploy them in IoT devices. Due to the drift in this field of study, this task has two limitations in terms of model complexity. It should be noted that there is also the added complexity of mismatching devices (the audios provided are recorded by different sources of information). This technical report makes a comparative study of two different network architectures: conventional CNN and Conv-mixer. Although both networks exceed the baseline required by the competition, the conventional CNN shows a higher performance, exceeding the baseline by 8 percentage points. Solutions based on Conv-mixer architectures show worse performance although they are much lighter solutions.

  We propose a continual learning algorithm for fake audio detection to overcome catastrophic forgetting. When fine-tuning a detection network, our approach adaptively computes the direction of weight modification according to the ratio of genuine utterances and fake utterances. Our method can easily be generalized to related fields, like speech emotion recognition.

  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.
