While many works succeeded in training models with high performance in a fully-supervised manner, they are still restricted to the demand of large quantities of labelled data and the range of predefined classes. To overcome these drawbacks, this work firstly curates a new database named FSD-FS for multi-label few-shot audio classification. It then explores how to incorporate audio taxonomy in few-shot learning. Specifically, this work proposes label-dependent prototypical networks (LaD-protonet) to exploit parent-children relationships between labels. Plus, it applies taxonomy-aware label smoothing techniques to boost model performance. Experiments demonstrate that LaD-protonet outperforms original prototypical networks as well as other state-of-the-art methods. Moreover, its performance can be further boosted when combined with taxonomy-aware label smoothing.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.08952v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.08952v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"learning-from-taxonomy-multi-label-few-shot","repo_url":"https://github.com/jinhualiang/lad-protonet","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
