This paper investigates negative sampling for contrastive learning in the context of audio-text retrieval. The strategy for negative sampling refers to selecting negatives (either audio clips or textual descriptions) from a pool of candidates for a positive audio-text pair. We explore sampling strat…
We investigate unsupervised learning of correspondences between sound events and textual phrases through aligning audio clips with textual captions describing the content of a whole audio clip. We align originally unaligned and unannotated audio clips and their captions by scoring the similarities b…
In this paper, we study zero-shot learning in audio classification through factored linear and nonlinear acoustic-semantic projections between audio instances and sound classes. Zero-shot learning in audio classification refers to classification problems that aim at recognizing audio instances of so…
