How Much Does Machine Identity Matter in Anomalous Sound Detection at Test Time?

Kevin Wilkinghoff, Keisuke Imoto, Zheng-Hua Tan

Anomalous sound detection (ASD) benchmarks typically assume that the identity of the monitored machine is known at test time and that recordings are evaluated in a machine-wise man…

DSpAST: Disentangled Representations for Spatial Audio Reasoning with Large Language Models

Kevin Wilkinghoff, Zheng-Hua Tan

Reasoning about spatial audio with large language models requires a spatial audio encoder as an acoustic front-end to obtain audio embeddings for further processing. Such an encode…

Multi-Sample Dynamic Time Warping for Few-Shot Keyword Spotting

Kevin Wilkinghoff, Alessia Cornaggia-Urrigshardt

In multi-sample keyword spotting, each keyword class is represented by multiple spoken instances, called samples. A naïve approach to detect keywords in a target sequence consists…
