摘要翻译：
提出了一种基于区域的卷积递归神经网络（R-CRNN）用于音频事件检测(AED)。该网络受Faster-RCNN的启发，它是一种基于区域的卷积网络框架，用于视觉目标检测。与原始的Faster-RCNN不同的是，在卷积网络的基础上增加了一个递归层，从提取的高层特征中捕获长期的时间背景。而以往的AED工作大多先在帧级生成预测，然后利用后处理从一个概率序列中预测事件的开始/偏移时间戳；该方法直接在事件级生成预测，并可以在多任务丢失的情况下进行端到端的训练，同时优化了音频事件的分类和定位。在DCASE 2017挑战数据集上对所提出的方法进行了测试。据我们所知，R-CRNN是所有方法中性能最好的单模型方法，在开发集和评价集上都不使用集成。与其它基于区域的AED网络（R-FCN）相比，基于事件的错误率(ER)在发展集上为0.18，我们的方法将ER降低了一半。

英文摘要：
  This paper proposes a Region-based Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network (R-CRNN) for audio event detection (AED). The proposed network is inspired by Faster-RCNN, a well known region-based convolutional network framework for visual object detection. Different from the original Faster-RCNN, a recurrent layer is added on top of the convolutional network to capture the long-term temporal context from the extracted high level features. While most of the previous works on AED generate predictions at frame level first, and then use post-processing to predict the onset/offset timestamps of events from a probability sequence; the proposed method generates predictions at event level directly and can be trained end-to-end with a multitask loss, which optimizes the classification and localization of audio events simultaneously. The proposed method is tested on DCASE 2017 Challenge dataset. To the best of our knowledge, R-CRNN is the best performing single-model method among all methods without using ensembles both on development and evaluation sets. Compared to the other region-based network for AED (R-FCN) with an event-based error rate (ER) of 0.18 on the development set, our method reduced the ER to half.
