Continuously recorded high-resolution waveform measurements provide rich information about fast power system dynamics. However, they require automated methods to identify events. This problem is addressed by developing a spectrogram-based framework to jointly detect, localize, and classify events in real-world continuously recorded waveforms at the terminal of an Inverter-Based Resource. We recast this problem as a temporal object detection problem on spectrogram images, as they capture the transient and harmonic signatures more explicitly than in raw waveform data. Each time-series waveform is transformed using the short-time Fourier transform, and the resulting per-channel spectrograms are stacked as a tensor for event detection. We benchmark this method against a detector operating directly on raw time-series measurements. Experiments on single-phase disturbances and three-phase faults demonstrate that the proposed spectrogram method consistently improves event detection, localization, and classification over the raw waveform baseline.
Industrial sound design requires audio generation systems that not only produce realistic audio, but also preserve the perceptual identity of a reference, support controllable variation, and remain efficient for practical workflows. Existing evaluations are usually tied to text-t…
This report investigates the extension of pretrained General-Purpose Audio Tagging (GP-AT) models toward spatially grounded Sound Event Localization and Detection (SELD). The proposed AT2SELD framework couples a pretrained AT backbone with compact First-Order Ambisonics (FOA) spa…
Submarine power and telecommunication cables constitute critical global infrastructure, yet they remain vulnerable to mechanical damage caused by maritime activities and intentional tampering. Continuous monitoring of these assets is therefore essential for early detection of ano…
Inverter-based resources and IEC 61850 process-bus measurements introduce new protection challenges, including nontraditional fault behavior and measurement-domain cyber-physical attacks. This paper evaluates DL-Xformer, an attention-based Transformer classifier for multi-class f…
Machine learning for underwater acoustics is constrained by the scarcity of publicly available labeled datasets. In contrast to air-acoustic domains, where large benchmarks enable rapid model development, underwater datasets are typically small and limited in acoustic diversity,…
This paper presents RealDESED, a real-world domestic sound event detection (SED) benchmark comprising 5,710 audio recordings collected by 652 participants in their homes. Each recording is between 15 and 35 seconds long and contains temporally precise annotations for 15 common do…
