+Demo Application for Sound Event Detection in Huggingface Space
+## Link to Original/Reference Code
+The codes contained in this repository were derived only from [PANNs inference](https://github.com/qiuqiangkong/panns_inference) Github repository which is an extension of the mother repository for the paper [PANNs: Large-Scale Pretrained Audio Neural Networks for Audio Pattern Recognition](https://github.com/qiuqiangkong/audioset_tagging_cnn).   
+## Background
+An sound event detection system is an audio tagging system applied to time segments of an audio signal. It identifies tags like the presence of an object, a living thing, and an action that generates sound in a particular time. 
+## Significance
+Applications of sound event detection system are wide-ranging. For instance, a deaf person can use such system to detect an approaching vehicle or watch a movie with sounds described to him/her/them. It can aid in forensics for identifying presence of objects and actions in an audio evidence. It can also be used to navigate through a large audio file using time-indexed tags.  
+## Usage
+Upload an audio file in WAV format. Other formats are not yet supported.
