Abstract:We study the usability of pre-trained weakly supervised audio tagging (AT) models as feature extractors for general audio representations. We mainly analyze the feasibility of transferring those embeddings to other tasks within the speech and sound domains. Specifically, we benchmark weakly supervised pre-trained models (MobileNetV2 and EfficientNet-B0) against modern self-supervised learning methods (BYOL-A) as feature extractors. Fourteen downstream tasks are used for evaluation ranging from music instrument… Show more
