Abstract: An acoustic event detection system may employ one or more recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to extract features from audio data, and use the extracted features to determine the presence of an acoustic event. The system may use self-attention to emphasize features extracted from portions of audio data that may include features more useful for detecting acoustic events. The system may perform self-attention in an iterative manner to reduce the amount of memory used to store hidden states of the RNN while processing successive portions of the audio data. The system may process the portions of the audio data using the RNN to generate a hidden state for each portion. The system may calculate an interim embedding for each hidden state. An interim embedding calculated for the last hidden state may be normalized to determine a final embedding representing features extracted from the input data by the RNN.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for automatic scene detection and character extraction. In one example, audiovisual content with video frames, an audio recording, and timing information is received. A score, based on the frame's visual characteristics, is determined for a first frame and subsequent frames. The first frame's score and subsequent frame's scores are compared to determine if the difference between the scores is above a threshold. When the difference in scores is above a threshold, the subsequent frame is classified as a new scene. The audiovisual content is segmented into scenes and textual characters are identified in at least one frame from each scene. The characters are stored and indexed in a searchable database with the timing information for the scene where the characters were identified. The audio recording is transcribed and the transcribed words are stored and indexed in the searchable database with timing information.

Abstract: A system may include a first acoustic event detection (AED) component configured to detect a predetermined set of acoustic events, and include a second AED component configured to detect custom acoustic events that a user configures a device to detect. The first and second AED components are configured to perform task-specific processing, and may receive as input the same acoustic feature data corresponding to audio data that potentially represents occurrence of one or more events. Based on processing by the first and second AED components, a device may output data indicating that one or more acoustic events occurred, where the acoustic events may be a predetermined acoustic event and/or a custom acoustic event.

The finger-mounted units may each have a body that serves as a support structure for components such as force sensors, accelerometers, and other sensors and for haptic output devices. The body may have sidewall portions coupled by a portion that rests adjacent to a user's fingernail. The body may be formed from deformable material such as metal or may be formed from adjustable structures such as sliding body portions that are coupled to each other using magnetic attraction, springs, or other structures. The body of each finger-mounted unit may have a U-shaped cross-sectional profile that leaves the finger pad of each finger exposed when the body is coupled to a fingertip of a user's finger. Control circuitry may gather finger press input, lateral finger movement input, and finger tap input using the sensors and may provide haptic output using the haptic output device.
