Abstract
This paper proposes sound event localization and detection methods from multichannel recording. The proposed system is based on two Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks (CRNNs) to perform sound event detection (SED) and time difference of arrival (TDOA) estimation on each pair of microphones in a microphone array. In this paper, the system is evaluated with a four-microphone array, and thus combines the results from six pairs of microphones to provide a final classification and a 3-D direction of arrival (DOA) estimate. Results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms the DCASE 2019 baseline system.
