RealDESED: A Real-World Domestic Sound Event Detection Benchmark
Florian Schmid, Paul Primus, Alexander Fichtinger +3
This paper presents RealDESED, a real-world domestic sound event detection (SED) benchmark comprising 5,710 audio recordings collected by 652 participants in their homes. Each reco…
Sound Event Detection with Boundary-Aware Optimization and Inference
Florian Schmid, Chi Ian Tang, Sanjeel Parekh +9
Temporal detection problems appear in many fields including time-series estimation, activity recognition and sound event detection (SED). In this work, we propose a new approach to…
Low-Complexity Acoustic Scene Classification with Device Information in the DCASE 2025 Challenge
Florian Schmid, Paul Primus, Toni Heittola +3
This paper presents the Low-Complexity Acoustic Scene Classification with Device Information Task of the DCASE 2025 Challenge, along with its baseline system. Continuing the focus…
Exploring Performance-Complexity Trade-Offs in Sound Event Detection Models
Tobias Morocutti, Florian Schmid, Jonathan Greif +2
We target the problem of developing new low-complexity networks for the sound event detection task. Our goal is to meticulously analyze the performance-complexity trade-off, aiming…
TACOS: Temporally-aligned Audio CaptiOnS for Language-Audio Pretraining
Paul Primus, Florian Schmid, Gerhard Widmer
Learning to associate audio with textual descriptions is valuable for a range of tasks, including pretraining, zero-shot classification, audio retrieval, audio captioning, and text…
Creating a Good Teacher for Knowledge Distillation in Acoustic Scene Classification
Tobias Morocutti, Florian Schmid, Khaled Koutini +1
Knowledge Distillation (KD) is a widespread technique for compressing the knowledge of large models into more compact and efficient models. KD has proved to be highly effective in…
