A Track-Wise Ensemble Event Independent Network for Polyphonic Sound Event Localization and Detection
share
Polyphonic sound event localization and detection (SELD) aims at detecting types of sound events with corresponding temporal activities and spatial locations. In this paper, a track-wise ensemble event independent network with a novel data augmentation method is proposed. The proposed model is based on our previous proposed Event-Independent Network V2 and is extended by conformer blocks and dense blocks. The track-wise ensemble model with track-wise output format is proposed to solve an ensemble model problem for track-wise output format that track permutation may occur among different models. The data augmentation approach contains several data augmentation chains, which are composed of random combinations of several data augmentation operations. The method also utilizes log-mel spectrograms, intensity vectors, and Spatial Cues-Augmented Log-Spectrogram (SALSA) for different models. We evaluate our proposed method in the Task of the L3DAS22 challenge and obtain the top ranking solution with a location-dependent F-score to be 0.699. Source code is released.
