摘要翻译：
针对不同声音类别在不同时间尺度和层次上的特征差异较大的特点，提出了一种基于深度卷积神经网络(CNN)的环境声音分类方法。该网络结构以原始波形为输入，采用不同卷积滤波器大小和步长的一组分离的并行CNN来学习具有多时相分辨率的特征表示。另一方面，该体系结构还利用卷积层之间的直接联系，从多级CNN层中聚合层次特征进行分类，这超出了以往大多数研究中采用的典型的单层CNN特征。这种网络结构还改善了信息的流动，避免了消失梯度问题。多级特征的结合显著提高了分类性能。在环境声音分类数据集(EC-50)和DCASE 2017音频场景分类数据集上进行了对比实验。实验结果表明，该方法在多时相分辨率和多层特征的分类任务中是高效的，优于以往只考虑单层特征的分类方法。

英文摘要：
  Motivated by the fact that characteristics of different sound classes are highly diverse in different temporal scales and hierarchical levels, a novel deep convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture is proposed for the environmental sound classification task. This network architecture takes raw waveforms as input, and a set of separated parallel CNNs are utilized with different convolutional filter sizes and strides, in order to learn feature representations with multi-temporal resolutions. On the other hand, the proposed architecture also aggregates hierarchical features from multi-level CNN layers for classification using direct connections between convolutional layers, which is beyond the typical single-level CNN features employed by the majority of previous studies. This network architecture also improves the flow of information and avoids vanishing gradient problem. The combination of multi-level features boosts the classification performance significantly. Comparative experiments are conducted on two datasets: the environmental sound classification dataset (ESC-50), and DCASE 2017 audio scene classification dataset. Results demonstrate that the proposed method is highly effective in the classification tasks by employing multi-temporal resolution and multi-level features, and it outperforms the previous methods which only account for single-level features.
