• Abstract: The outlier exposure method is an effective approach to address the unsupervised anomaly sound detection problem. The key focus of this method is how to make the model learn the distribution space of normal data. Based on biological perception and data analysis, it is found that anomalous audio and noise often have higher frequencies. Therefore, we propose a data augmentation method for high-frequency information in contrastive learning. This enables the model to pay more attention to the low-frequency information of the audio, which represents the normal operational mode of the machine. We evaluated the proposed method on the DCASE 2020 Task 2. The results showed that our method outperformed other contrastive learning methods used on this dataset. We also evaluated the generalizability of our method on the DCASE 2022 Task 2 dataset.

  Unsupervised anomalous sound detection (ASD) aims to identify anomalous sounds by learning the features of normal operational sounds and sensing their deviations. Recent approaches have focused on the self-supervised task utilizing the classification of normal data, and advanced models have shown that securing representation space for anomalous data is important. We propose a training technique aimed at ensuring intra-class compactness and increasing the angle gap between normal and abnormal samples.
