TL;DR: The creation of Audio Set is described, a large-scale dataset of manually-annotated audio events that endeavors to bridge the gap in data availability between image and audio research and substantially stimulate the development of high-performance audio event recognizers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used various CNN architectures to classify the soundtracks of a dataset of 70M training videos (5.24 million hours) with 30,871 video-level labels.

TL;DR: This work uses various CNN architectures to classify the soundtracks of a dataset of 70M training videos with 30,871 video-level labels, and investigates varying the size of both training set and label vocabulary, finding that analogs of the CNNs used in image classification do well on the authors' audio classification task, and larger training and label sets help up to a point.

TL;DR: The results show that the hybrid system performed substantially better than source separation or missing data mask estimation at lower signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), achieving up to 57.1% accuracy at SNR = -5 dB.

TL;DR: This paper introduces a novel non-parametric, exemplar-based method for reconstructing clean speech from noisy observations, based on techniques from the field of Compressive Sensing, which can impute missing features using larger time windows such as entire words.
