Abstract
Acoustic Event Detection (AED) is an important task of machine listening which, in recent years, has been addressed using common machine learning methods like Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) or deep learning. However, most of these approaches do not take into consideration the way that human auditory system detects salient sounds. In this work, we propose a method for AED using weakly labeled data that combines a Non-negative Matrix Factorization model with a salience model based on predictive coding in the form of Kalman filters. We show that models of auditory perception, particularly auditory salience, can be successfully incorporated into existing AED methods and improve their performance on rare event detection. We evaluate the method on the Task2 of DCASE2017 Challenge.
