CochlScene: Acquisition of acoustic scene data using crowdsourcing
About
This paper describes a pipeline for collecting acoustic scene data by using crowdsourcing. The detailed process of crowdsourcing is explained, including planning, validation criteria, and actual user interfaces. As a result of data collection, we present CochlScene, a novel dataset for acoustic scene classification. Our dataset consists of 76k samples collected from 831 participants in 13 acoustic scenes. We also propose a manual data split of training, validation, and test sets to increase the reliability of the evaluation results. Finally, we provide a baseline system for future research.
