Hierarchical-Concatenate Fusion TDNN for sound event classification.

Semantic feature combination/parsing issue is one of the key problems in sound event classification for acoustic scene analysis, environmental sound monitoring, and urban soundscape analysis. The input audio signal in the acoustic scene classification is composed of multiple acoustic events, which usually leads to low recognition rate in complex environments. To address this issue, this paper proposes the Hierarchical-Concatenate Fusion(HCF)-TDNN model by adding HCF Module to ECAPA-TDNN model for sound event classification.
