标题:使用深度学习框架的环境声音深度伪造检测
链接:https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.19652
摘要:None
摘要:In this paper, we propose a deep-learning framework for environmental sound deepfake detection (ESDD) -- the task of identifying whether the sound scene and sound event in an input audio recording is fake or not. To this end, we conducted extensive experiments to explore how individual spectrograms, a wide range of network architectures and pre-trained models, ensemble of spectrograms or network architectures affect the ESDD task performance. The experimental results on the benchmark datasets of EnvSDD and ESDD-Challenge-TestSet indicate that detecting deepfake audio of sound scene and detecting deepfake audio of sound event should be considered as individual tasks. We also indicate that the approach of finetuning a pre-trained model is more effective compared with training a model from scratch for the ESDD task. Eventually, our best model, which was finetuned from the pre-trained WavLM model with the proposed three-stage training strategy, achieve the Accuracy of 0.98, F1 Score of 0.95, AuC of 0.99 on EnvSDD Test subset and the Accuracy of 0.88, F1 Score of 0.77, and AuC of 0.92 on ESDD-Challenge-TestSet dataset.

摘要:None
摘要:While generative models have set new benchmarks for Target Speaker Extraction (TSE), their inherent reliance on global context precludes deployment in real-time applications. Direct adaptation to streaming scenarios often leads to catastrophic inference performance degradation due to the severe mismatch between training and streaming inference. To bridge this gap, we present the first autoregressive (AR) models tailored for streaming TSE. Our approach introduces a Chunk-wise Interleaved Splicing Paradigm that ensures highly efficient and stable streaming inference. To ensure the coherence between the extracted speech segments, we design a historical context refinement mechanism that mitigates boundary discontinuities by leveraging historical information. Experiments on Libri2Mix show that while AR generative baseline exhibits performance degradation at low latencies, our approach maintains 100% stability and superior intelligibility. Furthermore, our streaming results are comparable to or even surpass offline baselines. Additionally, our model achieves a Real-Time-Factor (RTF) of 0.248 on consumer-level GPUs. This work provides empirical evidence that AR generative backbones are viable for latency-sensitive applications through the Chunk-wise Interleaved Splicing Paradigm.

摘要:None
摘要:Tokenizing music to fit the general framework of language models is a compelling challenge, especially considering the diverse symbolic structures in which music can be represented (e.g., sequences, grids, and graphs). To date, most approaches tokenize symbolic music as sequences of musical events, such as onsets, pitches, time shifts, or compound note events. This strategy is intuitive and has proven effective in Transformer-based models, but it treats the regularity of musical time implicitly: individual tokens may span different durations, resulting in non-uniform time progression. In this paper, we instead consider whether an alternative tokenization is possible, where a uniform-length musical step (e.g., a beat) serves as the basic unit. Specifically, we encode all events within a single time step at the same pitch as one token, and group tokens explicitly by time step, which resembles a sparse encoding of a piano-roll representation. We evaluate the proposed tokenization on music continuation and accompaniment generation tasks, comparing it with mainstream event-based methods. Results show improved musical quality and structural coherence, while additional analyses confirm higher efficiency and more effective capture of long-range patterns with the proposed tokenization.
【4】Deep Supervised Contrastive Learning of Pitch Contours for Robust Pitch Accent Classification in Seoul Korean
标题:首尔韩语语音轮廓深度监督对比学习以实现稳健的语音口音分类

摘要:None
摘要:The intonational structure of Seoul Korean has been defined with discrete tonal categories within the Autosegmental-Metrical model of intonational phonology. However, it is challenging to map continuous $F_0$ contours to these invariant categories due to variable $F_0$ realizations in real-world speech. Our paper proposes Dual-Glob, a deep supervised contrastive learning framework to robustly classify fine-grained pitch accent patterns in Seoul Korean. Unlike conventional local predictive models, our approach captures holistic $F_0$ contour shapes by enforcing structural consistency between clean and augmented views in a shared latent space. To this aim, we introduce the first large-scale benchmark dataset, consisting of manually annotated 10,093 Accentual Phrases in Seoul Korean. Experimental results show that our Dual-Glob significantly outperforms strong baseline models with state-of-the-art accuracy (77.75%) and F1-score (51.54%). Therefore, our work supports AM-based intonational phonology using data-driven methodology, showing that deep contrastive learning effectively captures holistic structural features of continuous $F_0$ contours.
【5】HalluAudio: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Hallucination Detection in Large Audio-Language Models
标题:HalluAudio:大型音频语言模型中幻觉检测的综合基准

备注:Accepted to ACL 2026
摘要:None
摘要:Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) have recently achieved strong performance across various audio-centric tasks. However, hallucination, where models generate responses that are semantically incorrect or acoustically unsupported, remains largely underexplored in the audio domain. Existing hallucination benchmarks mainly focus on text or vision, while the few audio-oriented studies are limited in scale, modality coverage, and diagnostic depth. We therefore introduce HalluAudio, the first large-scale benchmark for evaluating hallucinations across speech, environmental sound, and music. HalluAudio comprises over 5K human-verified QA pairs and spans diverse task types, including binary judgments, multi-choice reasoning, attribute verification, and open-ended QA. To systematically induce hallucinations, we design adversarial prompts and mixed-audio conditions. Beyond accuracy, our evaluation protocol measures hallucination rate, yes/no bias, error-type analysis, and refusal rate, enabling a fine-grained analysis of LALM failure modes. We benchmark a broad range of open-source and proprietary models, providing the first large-scale comparison across speech, sound, and music. Our results reveal significant deficiencies in acoustic grounding, temporal reasoning, and music attribute understanding, underscoring the need for reliable and robust LALMs.
【6】UAF: A Unified Audio Front-end LLM for Full-Duplex Speech Interaction
标题:UAF:一种用于高保真语音交互的统一音频前端LLM
链接:https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.19221
摘要:None
摘要:Full-duplex speech interaction, as the most natural and intuitive mode of human communication, is driving artificial intelligence toward more human-like conversational systems. Traditional cascaded speech processing pipelines suffer from critical limitations, including accumulated latency, information loss, and error propagation across modules. To address these issues, recent efforts focus on the end-to-end audio large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4o, which primarily unify speech understanding and generation task. However, most of these models are inherently half-duplex, and rely on a suite of separate, task-specific front-end components, such as voice activity detection (VAD) and turn-taking detection (TD). In our development of speech assistant, we observed that optimizing the speech front-end is equally crucial as advancing the back-end unified model for achieving seamless, responsive interactions. To bridge this gap, we propose the first unified audio front-end LLM (UAF) tailored for full-duplex speech systems. Our model reformulates diverse audio front-end tasks into a single auto-regressive sequence prediction problem, including VAD, TD, speaker recognition (SR), automatic speech recognition (ASR) and question answer (QA). It takes streaming fixed-duration audio chunk (e.g., 600 ms) as input, leverages a reference audio prompt to anchor the target speaker at the beginning, and regressively generates discrete tokens encoding both semantic content and system-level state controls (e.g., interruption signals). Experiments demonstrate that our model achieves leading performance across multiple audio front-end tasks and significantly enhances response latency and interruption accuracy in real-world interaction scenarios.
【7】Audio Spoof Detection with GaborNet

摘要:None
摘要:An direction of development in the extraction of features from audio signals is based on processing raw samples in the time domain. Such an approach appears to be effective, especially in the era of neural networks. An example is SincNet. In this solution, the core of the neural network layer is a set of sinc functions that are convolved with the input signal. Due to the finite length of sinc functions, distortions appear in the frequency domain of the convolved signal, the same as in the case of windowing the signal. Recently, a new approach has been developed that uses Gabor filters to replace sinc functions. Due to the complex results, further modifications had to be applied, such as squared modulus or Gaussian Lowpass Pooling. In this work, an ingestion layer based on a bank of Gabor filters, named GaborNet, and its modifications are intensively examined within the popular RawNet2 and RawGAT- ST architectures. These have been developed for the purpose of audio spoof detection. Another issue that has been investigated was audio augmentation using codec conversions, room responses, and additive noises.

摘要:None
摘要:Existing Indic ASR benchmarks often use scripted, clean speech and leaderboard driven evaluation that encourages dataset specific overfitting. In addition, strict single reference WER penalizes natural spelling variation in Indian languages, including non standardized spellings of code-mixed English origin words. To address these limitations, we introduce Voice of India, a closed source benchmark built from unscripted telephonic conversations covering 15 major Indian languages across 139 regional clusters. The dataset contains 306230 utterances, totaling 536 hours of speech from 36691 speakers with transcripts accounting for spelling variations. We also analyze performance geographically at the district level, revealing disparities. Finally, we provide detailed analysis across factors such as audio quality, speaking rate, gender, and device type, highlighting where current ASR systems struggle and offering insights for improving real world Indic ASR systems.

摘要:None
摘要:High-fidelity character voice synthesis is a cornerstone of immersive multimedia applications, particularly for interacting with anime avatars and digital humans. However, existing systems struggle to maintain consistent persona traits across diverse emotional contexts. To bridge this gap, we present ATRIE, a unified framework utilizing a Persona-Prosody Dual-Track (P2-DT) architecture. Our system disentangles generation into a static Timbre Track (via Scalar Quantization) and a dynamic Prosody Track (via Hierarchical Flow-Matching), distilled from a 14B LLM teacher. This design enables robust identity preservation (Zero-Shot Speaker Verification EER: 0.04) and rich emotional expression. Evaluated on our extended AnimeTTS-Bench (50 characters), ATRIE achieves state-of-the-art performance in both generation and cross-modal retrieval (mAP: 0.75), establishing a new paradigm for persona-driven multimedia content creation.

摘要:Despite growing interest in Quranic data research, existing Quran datasets remain limited in both scale and diversity. To address this gap, we present Tadabur, a large-scale Quran audio dataset. Tadabur comprises more than 1400+ hours of recitation audio from over 600 distinct reciters, providing substantial variation in recitation styles, vocal characteristics, and recording conditions. This diversity makes Tadabur a comprehensive and representative resource for Quranic speech research and analysis. By significantly expanding both the total duration and variability of available Quran data, Tadabur aims to support future research and facilitate the development of standardized Quranic speech benchmarks.
【11】Comparison of sEMG Encoding Accuracy Across Speech Modes Using Articulatory and Phoneme Features
标题:使用发音和音素特征比较不同语音模式的sEMG编码准确性
链接:https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.18920
摘要:None
摘要:We test whether Speech Articulatory Coding (SPARC) features can linearly predict surface electromyography (sEMG) envelopes across aloud, mimed, and subvocal speech in twenty-four subjects. Using elastic-net multivariate temporal response function (mTRF) with sentence-level cross-validation, SPARC yields higher prediction accuracy than phoneme one-hot representations on nearly all electrodes and in all speech modes. Aloud and mimed speech perform comparably, and subvocal speech remains above chance, indicating detectable articulatory activity. Variance partitioning shows a substantial unique contribution from SPARC and a minimal unique contribution from phoneme features. mTRF weight patterns reveal anatomically interpretable relationships between electrode sites and articulatory movements that remain consistent across modes. This study focuses on representation/encoding analysis (not end-to-end decoding) and supports SPARC as a robust and interpretable intermediate target for sEMG-based silent-speech modeling.

摘要:None
摘要:This report presents an Audio-aware Referring Video Object Segmentation (Ref-VOS) pipeline tailored to the MEVIS\_Audio setting, where the referring expression is provided in spoken form rather than as clean text. Compared with a standard Sa2VA-based Ref-VOS pipeline, the proposed system introduces two additional front-end stages: speech transcription and visual existence verification. Specifically, we first employ VibeVoice-ASR to convert long-form spoken input into a structured textual transcript. Since audio-derived queries are inherently noisy and may describe entities that are not visually present in the video, we then introduce an Omni-based judgment module to determine whether the transcribed target can be grounded in the visual content. If the target is judged to be absent, the pipeline terminates early and outputs all-zero masks. Otherwise, the transcript is transformed into a segmentation-oriented prompt and fed into Sa2VA to obtain a coarse mask trajectory over the full video. Importantly, this trajectory is treated as an initial semantic hypothesis rather than a final prediction. On top of it, an agentic refinement layer evaluates query reliability, temporal relevance, anchor quality, and potential error sources, and may invoke SAM3 to improve spatial boundary precision and temporal consistency. The resulting framework explicitly decomposes the MEVIS\_Audio task into audio-to-text conversion, visual existence verification, coarse video segmentation, and agent-guided refinement. Such a staged design is substantially more appropriate for audio-conditioned Ref-VOS than directly sending noisy ASR outputs into a segmentation model.
【13】Virtual boundary integral neural network for three-dimensional exterior acoustic problems
标题:三维外声学问题的虚拟边界积分神经网络
链接:https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.18636
摘要:None
摘要:This paper presents a virtual boundary integral neural network (VBINN) for exterior acoustic problems in three dimensions. The method introduces a virtual boundary inside the scatterer or vibrating body and represents the associated source density with a neural network. Coupled with the acoustic fundamental solution, this representation satisfies the Sommerfeld radiation condition by construction and enables direct evaluation of the acoustic pressure and its normal derivative at arbitrary field points. Because the integration surface is separated from the physical boundary, the formulation avoids the singular and near singular kernel evaluations associated with coincident source and collocation points in conventional boundary integral learning methods. To reduce sensitivity to boundary placement, the geometric parameters of the virtual boundary are optimized jointly with the source density during training. Numerical examples for acoustic scattering, multiple body interaction, and underwater acoustic propagation show close agreement with analytical solutions and COMSOL results, and the Burton Miller extension further improves stability near characteristic frequencies. These results demonstrate the potential of VBINN for exterior acoustic analysis in three dimensions.
【14】Towards Revised Tempo Indications for Beethoven's Piano and Cello Sonatas: Czerny, Moscheles, Kolisch, and Recorded Practice 1930-2012

摘要:None
摘要:Historical metronome indications for Beethoven's five piano and cello sonatas (as transmitted by Czerny, Moscheles, and Kolisch), have long been regarded as problematic by performers and scholars alike. This paper presents the first systematic empirical assessment of those indications against a corpus of over one hundred movement-level recordings spanning 1930--2012, encompassing first, second, and third movements across all five sonatas (Op.~5 Nos.~1 and~2; Op.~69; Op.~102 Nos.~1 and~2). The core findings are threefold. First, Czerny's and Moscheles's markings are consistently and substantially exceeded by the entire recording corpus: gaps of 15--39\% are documented across movements, with the largest divergences in slow Adagio movements and the smallest in fast Allegro finales. Second, Kolisch's 1943 markings align considerably more closely with recorded practice than either Czerny's or Moscheles's, a striking result given that Kolisch was reasoning without corpus data. Third, the central Allegro tempo traditions for each movement are stable across eight decades; not because all performers play alike, but because three coexisting slow, mid-range, and fast traditions persist simultaneously, with the mid-range dominant throughout. Building on these findings, this paper proposes a set of revised tempo indications grounded in the statistical modal tempi of the corpus, presented as ranges reflecting the documented spectrum of expert interpretive practice rather than single prescriptive values. These indications are offered not as claims about Beethoven's intentions but as evidence-based reference points for performers and scholars navigating the gap between historical prescription and performable reality.
【15】A Complementary Visualisation Suite for Empirical Performance Analysis: Tempographs, Histograms, Ridgeline Plots, Stacked Bar Charts, and Combination Charts Applied to Beethoven's Piano and Cello Sonatas

摘要:The choice of visualisation in empirical performance analysis is not a neutral presentation decision but an analytical one: different graphical forms reveal different features of the same dataset, and reliance on any single type systematically conceals what the others expose. This paper presents and argues for a suite of five complementary visualisation tools; tempographs, histograms with spline-smoothed probability density functions, ridgeline plots, stacked bar charts, and combination charts. These are applied to bar-level beats-per-minute data from recordings of Beethoven's five piano and cello sonatas (Op.~5 Nos.~1 and~2; Op.~69; Op.~102 Nos.~1 and~2) spanning 1930--2012. Each tool is described formally, its analytical properties characterised, its implementation detailed in working Python and MATLAB code, and its specific contribution demonstrated on a worked example using two recordings of Op.~5 No.~1 (Casals/Horszowski 1930--39 and Isserlis/Levin 2012) separated by eight decades. A five-panel composite figure applies all five tools to the same two recordings simultaneously, making the complementarity argument concrete: the tempograph reveals moment-to-moment structural parallels invisible in aggregate statistics; the spline-smoothed histogram exposes bimodality and secondary peaks suppressed by binning artefacts; the ridgeline plot positions both recordings within the full distributional space; the stacked bar chart shows divergent sectional pacing concealed by identical movement means; and the combination chart integrates mean tempo, variability, and historical reference marks in a single view. The spline-CDF smoothing method, applied to histogram data via cubic spline interpolation with zero-slope boundary conditions, is presented as a novel contribution to the performance analysis toolkit. Full implementation code is publicly available.
【1】Text-To-Speech with Chain-of-Details: modeling temporal dynamics in speech generation
标题:具有细节链的文本转语音:语音生成中的时间动态建模
链接:https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.19330
摘要:None
摘要:Recent advances in Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesis have seen the popularity of multi-stage approaches that first predict semantic tokens and then generate acoustic tokens. In this paper, we extend the coarse-to-fine generation paradigm to the temporal domain and introduce Chain-of-Details (CoD), a novel framework that explicitly models temporal coarse-to-fine dynamics in speech generation using a cascaded architecture. Our method progressively refines temporal details across multiple stages, with each stage targeting a specific temporal granularity. All temporal detail predictions are performed using a shared decoder, enabling efficient parameter utilization across different temporal resolutions. Notably, we observe that the lowest detail level naturally performs phonetic planning without the need for an explicit phoneme duration predictor. We evaluate our method on several datasets and compare it against several baselines. Experimental results show that CoD achieves competitive performance with significantly fewer parameters than existing approaches. Our findings demonstrate that explicit modeling of temporal dynamics with the CoD framework leads to more natural speech synthesis.
【2】Reducing the Offline-Streaming Gap for Unified ASR Transducer with Consistency Regularization

摘要:None
摘要:Unification of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems reduces development and maintenance costs, but training a single model to perform well in both offline and low-latency streaming settings remains challenging. We present a Unified ASR framework for Transducer (RNNT) training that supports both offline and streaming decoding within a single model, using chunk-limited attention with right context and dynamic chunked convolutions. To further close the gap between offline and streaming performance, we introduce an efficient Triton implementation of mode-consistency regularization for RNNT (MCR-RNNT), which encourages agreement across training modes. Experiments show that the proposed approach improves streaming accuracy at low latency while preserving offline performance and scaling to larger model sizes and training datasets. The proposed Unified ASR framework and the English model checkpoint are open-sourced.
【3】Self-Noise Reduction for Capacitive Sensors via Photoelectric DC Servo: Application to Condenser Microphones
标题:通过光电直流伺服降低容性传感器的自噪:应用于电容麦克风
链接:https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.18969
摘要:None
摘要:The self-noise of capacitive sensors, primarily caused by thermal noise from the gate-bias resistor in the preamplifier, imposes a fundamental limit on measurement sensitivity. In electret condenser microphones (ECMs), this resistor simultaneously determines the noise low-pass cutoff frequency and the signal high-pass cutoff frequency through a single RC time constant, creating a trade-off between noise reduction and signal bandwidth. This paper proposes PDS-Amp (Photoelectric DC Servo Amplifier), a circuit technique that replaces the gate-bias resistor with a photoelectric element functioning as an ultra-high-impedance current source. A DC servo loop using lag-lead compensation feeds back the preamplifier output through an LED to control the photocurrent, thereby stabilizing the gate bias while decoupling the noise and signal cutoff frequencies. A custom photosensor based on the external photoelectric effect of a zinc photocathode was fabricated to achieve sub-picoampere dark current, overcoming the limitations of commercial semiconductor photodiodes. Combined with a cascode JFET preamplifier that minimizes input capacitance through bootstrap action, PDS-Amp achieved a self-noise of 11 dBA with a 12 pF dummy microphone. Despite using a small-diameter ECM capsule, this performance is comparable to that of large-diaphragm condenser microphones costing several thousand dollars. Recording experiments with an actual ECM capsule qualitatively confirmed a significant reduction in background noise. The proposed technique is applicable not only to microphones but broadly to capacitive sensors including accelerometers, pressure sensors, and pyroelectric sensors.

备注:Accepted in 2026 IEEE AESS RadarConf
摘要:None
摘要:Hybrid beamforming architectures reduce hardware complexity but restrict access to full array observations, rendering direct implementation of classical covariance based methods such as minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) and sample matrix inversion (SMI) infeasible. This work introduces a structured covariance completion framework, termed Rock Road to Dublin (RR2D), which estimates the unobservable analytical covariance matrix (ACM) from a partially observed sample covariance matrix (SCM). RR2D exploits signal stationarity across the array and enforces physical measurement consistency using Dykstra's alternating projection algorithm with positive semidefinite, Toeplitz, and block constraints. The reconstructed virtual ACM enables a realizable hybrid SMI (HSMI) formulation that remains fully compatible with existing hybrid MVDR optimization frameworks. Empirical results for a 32 element hybrid array demonstrate both the expected degradation of HSMI implemented directly under prior HMVDR formulations and the performance gains achieved through RR2D. The proposed HSMI consistently outperforms previous hybrid SMI and partial digital baselines, achieving performance close to the HMVDR reference. Overall, RR2D bridges the gap between theoretical HMVDR formulations and practical hybrid hardware by enabling structured covariance reconstruction from incomplete observations.
