Competition Awards

The team has won the Judges' award and Second place in the Task 3 category of DCASE 2021. The world's largest international competition for the detection and classification of acoustic scenes and events.

The goal of Task 3 (Sound Event Localization and Detection with Directional Interference) is to recognize individual sound events of specific classes, by detecting their temporal activity and estimating their location in the presence of spatial ambient noise and interfering directional events that do not belong to the target classes.
