Audio Task

Audio task research focuses on developing robust and generalizable models for understanding and processing audio data, aiming to improve performance across diverse applications like audio classification, captioning, and question answering. Current efforts concentrate on enhancing model architectures like Audio Spectrogram Transformers (ASTs) to improve flexibility and robustness, and exploring self-supervised learning methods such as BYOL for pre-training general-purpose audio representations. This research is significant because it advances the capabilities of audio-language models, leading to improved performance in various applications and potentially enabling more sophisticated human-computer interaction and data analysis.
