Sound event localization and detection (SELD) is a joint task of sound event detection and direction-of-arrival estimation. In DCASE 2022 Task 3, types of data transform from computationally generated spatial recordings to recordings of real-sound scenes. Our system submitted to the DCASE 2022 Task 3 is based on our previous proposed Event-Independent Network V2 (EINV2) with a novel data augmentation method. Our method employs EINV2 with a track-wise output format, permutation-invariant training, and a soft parameter-sharing strategy, to detect different sound events of the same class but in different locations. The Conformer structure is used for extending EINV2 to learn local and global features. A data augmentation method, which contains several data augmentation chains composed of stochastic combinations of several different data augmentation operations, is utilized to generalize the model. To mitigate the lack of real-scene recordings in the development dataset and the presence of sound events being unbalanced, we exploit FSD50K, AudioSet, and TAU Spatial Room Impulse Response Database (TAU-SRIR DB) to generate simulated datasets for training. We present results on the validation set of Sony-TAu Realistic Spatial Soundscapes 2022 (STARSS22) in detail. Experimental results indicate that the ability to generalize to different environments and unbalanced performance among different classes are two main challenges. We evaluate our proposed method in Task 3 of the DCASE 2022 challenge and obtain the second rank in the teams ranking. Source code is released.
