CED are simple ViT-Transformer-based models for audio tagging, achieving sota performance on Audioset. Notable differences from other available models include: 1. Simplification for finetuning: Batchnormalization of Mel-Spectrograms. During finetuning one does not need to first compute mean/variance over the dataset, which is common for AST. 1. Support for variable length inputs. Most other models use a static time-frequency position embedding, which hinders the model's generalization to segments shorter than 10s. Many previous transformers simply pad their input to 10s in order to avoid the performance impact, which in turn slows down training/inference drastically. 1. Training/Inference…

Dasheng (Deep Audio-Signal Holistic Embeddings), or “大声” ("great sound"), is a general-purpose audio encoder trained on a large-scale self-supervised learning task. Dasheng is designed to capture rich audio information across various domains, including speech, music, and environmental sounds. The model is trained on 272,356 hours of diverse audio data with 1.2 billion parameters, and exhibits significant performance gains on the HEAR benchmark. Dasheng outperforms previous works on CREMA-D, LibriCount, Speech Commands, VoxLingua, and competes well in music and environmental sound classification tasks. examplefinetuneesc50.ipynb demonstrates how to train a linear head on the ESC-50 dataset…
