A large joint sound scene and sound event dataset for source separation of foreground sound events

<p>This large scale data set contains 10000 samples of sound scenes generated from real world recordings, and the original source recordings. It includes 10 different backgrounds with 6-9 appropriate foreground sound events. Strong labels (timed annotations) are provided in four formats for all samples. The original sourceids to identify the class type, a two source method to simply separate foreground and backgrounds, a 32 source annotation for all distinct foregrounds, and a by background (scene) type annotation where sources are according to the background.&nbsp;</p> <p>Baseline results will be presented later in 2020. Further evolutions of this dataset will also be produced with more complex, polyphonic foreground sound events.
