The 10th Workshop on Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events, DCASE 2025, will be held in Barcelona on 30-31 October. The day before, 29th of October, the satellite event BioDCASE (dedicated to bioacoustics) will take place in the same venue.

As in previous years, the workshop is organized in conjunction with the DCASE challenge. We aim to bring together researchers from many different universities, research organizations and companies with an interest in the topic, and provide the opportunity for scientific exchange of ideas and opinions.

We invite submissions on the topics of computational analysis of acoustic scenes and sound events, including but not limited to:

Tasks in computational environmental audio analysis

  • Environmental audio classification and tagging

  • Sound event detection and localization

  • Audio captioning and natural language based audio retrieval

  • Bio-acoustics

  • Environmental audio generation

  • Anomalous sound detection

  • Audio source separation

Methods for computational environmental audio analysis

  • Signal processing and auditory-motivated methods

  • Multimodal methods

  • Machine learning methods: e.g. feature learning, self-supervised learning, foundation modeling for environmental audio

  • Cross-disciplinary methods involving, e.g., acoustics, biology, psychology, geography, materials science, transports science

  • Generative modeling

  • Perceptual analysis and modeling of acoustic environments

Resources, applications, and evaluations of computational environmental-audio analysis

  • Publicly available datasets: e.g., multichannel dataset, noisy dataset, missing dataset, mismatch device dataset

  • Publicly available software, taxonomies, and ontologies, evaluation procedures

  • Modeling, simulation, and synthesis of realistic acoustic scenes

  • Ethics, privacy, responsible research

  • Applications

We strongly encourage reproducible research with open-source code and open data, though it is not mandatory.

Important notice for challenge participants: Description of systems submitted to the DCASE2025 Challenge is expected to be expanded from the challenge technical report submissions to comply with the format of a scientific paper. This generally means describing the scientific novelty and including more discussions such as ablation studies for additional modules in your method.
