# UrbanSound_EventDetection_Wav2Vec2

## 👂 Overview

The **UrbanSound_EventDetection_Wav2Vec2** is a highly efficient model based on the pre-trained **Wav2Vec2** architecture, fine-tuned specifically for classifying momentary and continuous sound events within urban environments. It processes raw audio waveforms to identify one of eight high-priority urban sound classes, focusing on high-impact and potentially anomalous events. 

## 🧠 Model Architecture

This model utilizes the standard Wav2Vec2 pipeline, which operates directly on raw audio data without the need for manual feature extraction (like MFCCs).

* **Base Model:** `facebook/wav2vec2-base`
* **Feature Extractor:** A stack of 1D convolutional layers extracts local features from the raw waveform.
* **Transformer Encoder:** 12 layers of Transformer blocks capture long-range dependencies and global context within the audio clip.
* **Classification Head:** A task-specific linear layer is placed on top of the contextualized representations to predict one of the 8 event labels.
* **Target Classes:** Car\_Horn, Children\_Playing, Dog\_Barking, Machinery\_Hum, Siren\_Emergency, Train\_Whistle, Tire\_Screech, and Glass\_Shattering.

## 🎯 Intended Use

This model is intended for smart city, safety, and acoustic monitoring systems:

1.  **Acoustic Surveillance:** Real-time detection of emergency sounds (Siren, Glass Shattering, Tire Screech) for public safety alerting.
2.  **Noise Pollution Monitoring:** Quantifying the occurrence and frequency of specific noise sources (Car Horn, Machinery Hum) in different city zones.
3.  **Urban Planning:** Analyzing soundscape composition to inform policy on zoning and noise mitigation strategies.

## ⚠️ Limitations

1.  **Event Overlap:** The current setup is trained for single-label classification. If multiple sounds occur simultaneously (e.g., Siren + Dog Barking), the model will only output the single most probable event, potentially ignoring others.
2.  **Domain Shift:** The model's performance may degrade if deployed in environments with significantly different background noise profiles (e.g., highly quiet suburbs vs. extremely loud Asian markets).
3.  **Localization:** This model performs *event detection* but does not inherently provide *sound localization* (Direction-of-Arrival or DOA), which would require specialized input features (like ambisonic audio) and a different model head.
