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
Deep Adaptive Attention for Joint Facial Action Unit Detection and Face Alignment
Facial action unit (AU) detection and face alignment are two highly
correlated tasks since facial landmarks can provide precise AU locations to
facilitate the extraction of meaningful local features for AU detection. Most
existing AU detection works often treat face alignment as a preprocessing and
handle the two tasks independently. In this paper, we propose a novel
end-to-end deep learning framework for joint AU detection and face alignment,
which has not been explored before. In particular, multi-scale shared features
are learned firstly, and high-level features of face alignment are fed into AU
detection. Moreover, to extract precise local features, we propose an adaptive
attention learning module to refine the attention map of each AU adaptively.
Finally, the assembled local features are integrated with face alignment
features and global features for AU detection. Experiments on BP4D and DISFA
benchmarks demonstrate that our framework significantly outperforms the
state-of-the-art methods for AU detection.Comment: This paper has been accepted by ECCV 201
