Claim 13:
14. A computer-implemented method of detecting a non-semantic, paralinguistic event in an audio stream comprising:
performing one or more pre-processing steps on the audio stream to generate an input audio sequence comprising a plurality of time-separated audio segments;
generating an embedding for each of the segments of the input audio sequence using an audio feature set generated by a self-supervised triplet loss embedding model, the embedding model having been trained to learn the audio feature set in a self-supervised triplet loss manner from a plurality of speech audio clips from a speech dataset; and
providing the embedding for each of the segments to a model performing inference to detect the non-semantic and paralinguistic event, the model generating a probability that each of the segments of the input audio sequence includes such an event.
