Eventness: Object Detection on Spectrograms for Temporal Localization of Audio Events

Phuong Pham, Juncheng Li, Joseph Szurley +1

In this paper, we introduce the concept of Eventness for audio event detection, which can, in part, be thought of as an analogue to Objectness from computer vision. The key observa…
