Popis: This report presents the technical details of our submission to the 2023 Epic-Kitchen EPIC-SOUNDS Audio-Based Interaction Recognition Challenge. The task is to learn the mapping from audio samples to their corresponding action labels. To achieve this goal, we propose a simple yet effective single-stream CNN-based architecture called AudioInceptionNeXt that operates on the time-frequency log-mel-spectrogram of the audio samples. Motivated by the design of the InceptionNeXt, we propose parallel multi-scale depthwise separable convolutional kernels in the AudioInceptionNeXt block, which enable the model to learn the time and frequency information more effectively. The large-scale separable kernels capture the long duration of activities and the global frequency semantic information, while the small-scale separable kernels capture the short duration of activities and local details of frequency information. Our approach achieved 55.43% of top-1 accuracy on the challenge test set, ranked as 1st on the public leaderboard.
