Toni Heittola
About me
My research area is Machine Listening, with a focus on Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events. My work includes different environmental sound detection and classification tasks, data collection and annotation procedures, evaluation methodology, and metrics. I have been actively involved in promoting the DCASE Challenge and Workshop, both through coordination work and publication of open data and research.
