    Humans can selectively attend to a target sound and estimate its direction in complex scenarios, whereas such selective localization remains challenging for current deep learning-based systems. Sound source localization (SSL) has achieved remarkable success with deep learning, yet most methods localize all active sources without selectivity. Conversely, target sound extraction (TSE) extracts sources using multimodal prompts but typically...

    This technical report describes our system for Task 1 of the DCASE 2026 Challenge, which aims to classify heterogeneous audio recordings according to the Broad Sound Taxonomy (BST). The task requires both accurate second-level prediction and consistency with the top-level taxonomy. Our system is built on CLAP-based audio-text representations and is improved along three strategies: expanding the training set with a filtered subset of BSD35k,...
