Google Audio Set classification with Keras and pytorch

Audio Set is a large scale weakly labelled dataset containing over 2 million 10-second audio clips with 527 classes published by Google in 2017.

This codebase is an implementation of [1, 2], where attention neural networks are proposed for Audio Set classification and achieves a mean average precision (mAP) of 0.360.

Download dataset

We convert the tensorflow type data to numpy data and stored in hdf5 file. The size of the dataset is 2.3 G. The hdf5 data can be downloaded here https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B49XSFgf-0yVQk01eG92RHg4WTA

Run

Users may optionaly choose Keras or pytorch as backend in runme.sh to run the code (default is pytorch).

./runme.sh

Extract AudioSet embedding feature from a raw waveform.

You may extract AudioSet embedding feature of your own audio file (Tensorflow required).

First you need to download and put these two files in the root of this codebase:

(1) vggish_model.ckpt from https://storage.googleapis.com/audioset/vggish_model.ckpt

(2) vggish_pca_params.npz from https://storage.googleapis.com/audioset/vggish_pca_params.npz

Second, run CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python extract_audioset_embedding/extract_audioset_embedding.py
