Talk Abstract:
Audio scene analysis, event detection and tagging have attracted increasing interest recently, with a variety of potential applications in security surveillance, and acoustic sensing for smart homes and cities. This talk will present some recent and new development for several challenges related to this topic, including data challenges (e.g. DCASE 2016 & 2017), acoustic modelling, feature learning, and dealing with weakly labelled data using deep learning. We will show some latest results including the results of our proposed algorithms and some benchmark methods. We will also use some sound demos to show the potential applications of these algorithms.
