TL;DR

  • We introduce a stacked band-pass filters. Filters are stacked through channels and their center frequencies are in harmonic relationship, e.g., If the k-th filter in the first channel has a center frequency of 440Hz, k-th filter in the second channel is automatically 880Hz, and the k-th filter in third channel is 1320Hz.
  • Center frequencies and bandwidths are learnable.
  • Then we simply applied 3x3 CNN.
  • It showed SOTA performances in music tagging, keyword spotting, and acoustic event detection tasks.
