1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Environmental sounds form part of our daily life. With the advancement of deep learning models and the abundance of training data, the performance of automatic sound classification (ASC) systems has improved significantly in recent years. However, the high computational cost, hence high power consumption, remains a major hurdle for large-scale implementation of ASC systems on mobile and wearable devices. Motivated by the observations that humans are highly effective and consume little power whilst analyzing complex audio scenes, we propose a biologically plausible ASC framework, namely SOM-SNN. This framework uses the unsupervised self-organizing map (SOM) for representing frequency contents embedded within the acoustic signals, followed by an event-based spiking neural network (SNN) for spatiotemporal spiking pattern classification. We report experimental results on the RWCP environmental sound and TIDIGITS spoken digits datasets, which demonstrate competitive classification accuracies over other deep learning and SNN-based models. The SOM-SNN framework is also shown to be highly robust to corrupting noise after multi-condition training, whereby the model is trained with noise-corrupted sound samples. Moreover, we discover the early decision making capability of the proposed framework: an accurate classification can be made with an only partial presentation of the input.
