报告简介：In this talk, we present a novel real-time sound event detection framework, which combines multi-label learning and edge computing, to classify and localize abnormal sound events for city surveillance. Multiple devices equipped with acoustic sensors are deployed to collect the audio information. A learning-based approach is introduced to address the difficulties of accurately classifying the temporally overlapping acoustic events in a noisy environment. Then, edge computing is adopted to handle the high processing complexity of the learned analytics. Computation-intensive tasks of classification and localization can be offloaded to the nearby edge server for low-latency sound detection. An ensemble-based cooperative decision-making algorithm is also presented to aggregate the information from distributed devices in order to obtain better classification results. Extensive evaluations show the effectiveness of edge computing which helps reduce the time latency as well as the superiority of cooperative post-processing on the edge server to obtain a high accuracy..
