Sample Mixed-Based Data Augmentation for Domestic Audio Tagging
Audio tagging has attracted increasing attention since last decade and has
various potential applications in many fields. The objective of audio tagging
is to predict the labels of an audio clip. Recently deep learning methods have
been applied to audio tagging and have achieved state-of-the-art performance,
which provides a poor generalization ability on new data. However due to the
limited size of audio tagging data such as DCASE data, the trained models tend
to result in overfitting of the network. Previous data augmentation methods
such as pitch shifting, time stretching and adding background noise do not show
much improvement in audio tagging. In this paper, we explore the sample mixed
data augmentation for the domestic audio tagging task, including mixup,
SamplePairing and extrapolation. We apply a convolutional recurrent neural
network (CRNN) with attention module with log-scaled mel spectrum as a baseline
system. In our experiments, we achieve an state-of-the-art of equal error rate
(EER) of 0.10 on DCASE 2016 task4 dataset with mixup approach, outperforming
the baseline system without data augmentation.Comment: submitted to the workshop of Detection and Classification of Acoustic

Deep Learning for Audio Signal Processing
Given the recent surge in developments of deep learning, this article
provides a review of the state-of-the-art deep learning techniques for audio
signal processing. Speech, music, and environmental sound processing are
considered side-by-side, in order to point out similarities and differences
between the domains, highlighting general methods, problems, key references,
and potential for cross-fertilization between areas. The dominant feature
representations (in particular, log-mel spectra and raw waveform) and deep
learning models are reviewed, including convolutional neural networks, variants
of the long short-term memory architecture, as well as more audio-specific
neural network models. Subsequently, prominent deep learning application areas
are covered, i.e. audio recognition (automatic speech recognition, music
information retrieval, environmental sound detection, localization and
tracking) and synthesis and transformation (source separation, audio
enhancement, generative models for speech, sound, and music synthesis).
Finally, key issues and future questions regarding deep learning applied to
audio signal processing are identified.Comment: 15 pages, 2 pdf figure
