Bio. Since 2013, Thomas Pellegrini is an Associate Professor in Computer Science at Université
Paul Sabatier in Toulouse, associated to the IRIT lab. He holds an engineering degree in Physics
from Ecole Supérieure de Physique et Chimie Industriels de Paris (ESPCI, 2004), a M.S. in
Computer Science with a specialization in audio processing (Master ATIAM, 2004), and a PhD
from Université Paris-Sud at LIMSI-CNRS (2008) on lexicon modeling in speech recognition
for less-represented languages.
From 2008 to 2013, he worked as a post-doc at the Spoken Language Systems Lab (L2F) of
INESC-ID in Lisbon on speech recognition for the elderly, on linguistic data sharing
(METANET), and on audio event detection in authentic videos (VIDI-VIDEO). Since his arrival
at IRIT in 2013, he contributes to the group research lines related to speech and audio processing,
with a strong interest these last years for deep learning applied to audio signal processing. In
2018, he was awarded a Jeune Chercheur project fellowship on lightly-supervised and
unsupervised discovery of audio units using deep learning.

    Abstract. Weakly-annotated data correspond to data manually annotated with "weak"
labels. Weak labels refer to global tags, at document level, with no information about the
precise location (in time or space) of the events of interest. Deep neural networks can be
trained with these data as predictors of the tags of interest. We would like to design methods
to go further by trying to use these networks to also predict where the events of interest are
localized within the input data. Weakly-supervised deep learning approaches will be
described, with sound event detection and hate speech detection as a use cases. I will review
two main research directions: i) the introduction of attention mechanisms in the network
architecture, ii) the use of Multiple Instance Learning inspired objective functions. I will
comment on their limitations and how these could be overcome.
