- Abstract
- Recent studies have demonstrated deep learning approaches directly from raw data have been successfully used in image and text. This approach has been applied to audio signals as well but not fully explored yet. In this works, we propose a convolutional recurrent neural network that directly uses time-domain waveforms as input in the domain of urban sound classification. Convolutional recurrent neural network is combined model of convolutional neural networks for extracting sound features and recurrent neural networks for temporal aggregation of the extracted features. The method was evaluated using the UrbanSound8k dataset, the largest public dataset of urban environmental sound sources available for research. The results show how convolutional recurrent neural network with raw waveforms improve the accuracy in urban sound classification and provide effectiveness of its structure with respect to the number of parameters.
