Spatio-Temporal Representation Learning Enhanced Source Cell-phone Recognition from Speech Recordings

Abstract

The existing source cell-phone recognition method lacks the long-term feature characterization of the source device, resulting in inaccurate representation of the source cell-phone related features which leads to insufficient recognition accuracy. In this paper, we propose a source cell-phone recognition method based on spatio-temporal representation learning, which includes two main parts: extraction of sequential Gaussian mean matrix features and construction of a recognition model based on spatio-temporal representation learning. In the feature extraction part, based on the analysis of time-series representation of recording source signals, we extract sequential Gaussian mean matrix with long-term and short-term representation ability by using the sensitivity of Gaussian mixture model to data distribution. In the model construction part, we design a structured spatio-temporal representation learning network C3D-BiLSTM to fully characterize the spatio-temporal information, combine 3D convolutional network and bidirectional long short-term memory network for short-term spectral information and long-time fluctuation information representation learning, and achieve accurate recognition of cell-phones by fusing spatio-temporal feature information of recording source signals. The method achieves an average accuracy of 99.03% for the closed-set recognition of 45 cell-phones under the CCNU\_Mobile dataset, and 98.18% in small sample size experiments, with recognition performance better than the existing state-of-the-art methods. The experimental results show that the method exhibits excellent recognition performance in multi-class cell-phones recognition.

Streaming Generation for Music Accompaniment

Music generation models can produce high-fidelity coherent accompaniment given complete audio input, but are limited to editing and loop-based workflows. We study real-time audio-to-audio accompaniment: as a model hears an input audio stream (e.g., a singer singing), it has to also simultaneously generate in real-time a coherent accompanying stream (e.g., a guitar accompaniment). In this work, we propose a model design considering inevitable system delays in practical deployment with two design variables: future visibility $t_f$, the offset between the output playback time and the latest input time used for conditioning, and output chunk duration $k$, the number of frames emitted per call. We train Transformer decoders across a grid of $(t_f,k)$ and show two consistent trade-offs: increasing effective $t_f$ improves coherence by reducing the recency gap, but requires faster inference to stay within the latency budget; increasing $k$ improves throughput but results in degraded accompaniment due to a reduced update rate. Finally, we observe that naive maximum-likelihood streaming training is insufficient for coherent accompaniment where future context is not available, motivating advanced anticipatory and agentic objectives for live jamming.

M-CIF: Multi-Scale Alignment For CIF-Based Non-Autoregressive ASR

The Continuous Integrate-and-Fire (CIF) mechanism provides effective alignment for non-autoregressive (NAR) speech recognition. This mechanism creates a smooth and monotonic mapping from acoustic features to target tokens, achieving performance on Mandarin competitive with other NAR approaches. However, without finer-grained guidance, its stability degrades in some languages such as English and French. In this paper, we propose Multi-scale CIF (M-CIF), which performs multi-level alignment by integrating character and phoneme level supervision progressively distilled into subword representations, thereby enhancing robust acoustic-text alignment. Experiments show that M-CIF reduces WER compared to the Paraformer baseline, especially on CommonVoice by 4.21% in German and 3.05% in French. To further investigate these gains, we define phonetic confusion errors (PE) and space-related segmentation errors (SE) as evaluation metrics. Analysis of these metrics across different M-CIF settings reveals that the phoneme and character layers are essential for enhancing progressive CIF alignment.

Decoding Order Matters in Autoregressive Speech Synthesis

Autoregressive speech synthesis often adopts a left-to-right order, yet generation order is a modelling choice. We investigate decoding order through masked diffusion framework, which progressively unmasks positions and allows arbitrary decoding orders during training and inference. By interpolating between identity and random permutations, we show that randomness in decoding order affects speech quality. We further compare fixed strategies, such as \texttt{l2r} and \texttt{r2l} with adaptive ones, such as Top-$K$, finding that fixed-order decoding, including the dominating left-to-right approach, is suboptimal, while adaptive decoding yields better performance. Finally, since masked diffusion requires discrete inputs, we quantise acoustic representations and find that even 1-bit quantisation can support reasonably high-quality speech.
