Early Detection involves identifying an event or condition at its early stages, allowing for timely intervention or response. This concept is applied in various fields, such as disease detection, security, and risk management.

SEED: Sound Event Early Detection via Evidential Uncertainty

/in /by

Sound Event Early Detection (SEED) is an essential task in recognizing the acoustic environments and soundscapes. However, most of the existing methods focus on the offline sound event detection, which suffers from the over-confidence issue of early-stage event detection and usually yield unreliable results. To solve the problem, we propose a novel Polyphonic Evidential Neural Network (PENet) to model the evidential uncertainty of the class probability with Beta distribution. Specifically, we use a Beta distribution to model the distribution of class probabilities, and the evidential uncertainty enriches uncertainty representation with evidence information, which plays a central role in reliable prediction. To further improve the event detection performance, we design the backtrack inference method that utilizes both the forward and backward audio features of an ongoing event. Experiments on the DESED database show that the proposed method can simultaneously improve 13.0% and 3.8% in time delay and detection F1 score compared to the state-of-the-art methods.

A Study on Traffic Flow Monitoring Using Optical Fiber Sensor Technology

Traffic conditions of the highway, Ya traffic volume meter CCTV Because it is observed in the spot, such as the discovery of traffic disturbances which deviates from the observation spot it may be delayed. The traffic flow has a problem from the point observations data indirectly order to be estimated, the capture accuracy of trending and regional circumstances change in time series. Therefore, we focused on the optical fiber sensing technology that utilizes the existing light off Aibainfura highway, actually measuring the travel vibration of the vehicle from the infrastructure as a continuous line, overhead grasp the traffic flow from the traveling locus We are working to. This time, tried traffic flow observation and the estimates of the average speed in the Tokyo, Nagoya and New Tomei Expressway. A result, the demonstration zone 45km in a traffic flow observable real time, succeeded in average speed calculation equivalent to the existing traffic meter, this technology has shown promise as a bird’s-eye technique wide and real-time traffic flow.
