Could you please point to some papers for "I see a lot of image models (ImageNet, ResNet, etc) that are being used for transfer learning in the audio classification domain"?

I thought YAMNet was trained on Audioset from scratch. Could you please point to the paper which uses a pretrained image model to train the YAMNet?

It is trained on AudioSet. I listed YAMNet to highlight the lack of large audio models when compared to image models. And highlight the problem that it limits your data input due to its architecture.

Also, I mainly see transfer learning for CNN in kaggle notebooks, and could find a few papers where an image net is used as one of the models being used.

These are just a few but it seems decently common.

thank you! There are few works on huge audio models e.g. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.13226.pdf that might be interesting.
