Description This dataset comprises embeddings and captions utilized as the development dataset for DCASE 2024 Challenge Task 7, focusing on 'Environmental Sound Scene Synthesis.' The embeddings are derived from 60 different 4-second audio files formatted as mono 32-bit 32kHz, and are contained in the 'embeddings.tar.xz' file. Captions corresponding to each audio file can be found in 'caption.csv'. This dataset does not comprise the audio files, only the embeddings. Three different types of embeddings are provided: VGGish (vggish), MS-CLAP (clap-2023), and PANNs CNN14 Wavegram-Logmel (panns-wavegram-logmel). Only PANNs CNN14 Wavegram-Logmel (panns-wavegram-logmel) embeddings are used for evaluation in the challenge. For further details, please refer to the challenge website.

null (Ed.)To explain the consonance of octaves, music psychologists represent pitch as a helix where azimuth and axial coordinate correspond to pitch class and pitch height respectively. This article addresses the problem of discovering this helical structure from unlabeled audio data. We measure Pearson correlations in the constant-Q transform (CQT) domain to build a K-nearest neighbor graph between frequency subbands. Then, we run the Isomap manifold learning algorithm to represent this graph in a three-dimensional space in which straight lines approximate graph geodesics. Experiments on isolated musical notes demonstrate that the resulting manifold resembles a helix which makes a full turn at every octave. A circular shape is also found in English speech, but not in urban noise. We discuss the impact of various design choices on the visualization: instrumentarium, loudness mapping function, and number of neighbors K.more » « less
