Abstract

In this paper, we propose an anomaly detection algorithm for machine sounds with a deep complex network trained by self-supervision. Using the fact that phase continuity information is crucial for detecting abnormalities in time-series signals, our proposed algorithm utilizes the complex spectrum as an input and performs complex number arithmetic throughout the entire process. Since the usefulness of phase information can vary depending on the type of machine sound, we also apply an attention mechanism to control the weights of the complex and magnitude spectrum bottleneck features depending on the machine type. We train our network to perform a self-supervised task that classifies the machine identifier (id) of normal input sounds among multiple classes. At test time, an input signal is detected as anomalous if the trained model is unable to correctly classify the id. In other words, we determine the presence of an anomality when the output cross-entropy score of the multiclass identification task is lower than a pre-defined threshold. Experiments with the MIMII dataset show that the proposed algorithm has a much higher area under the curve (AUC) score than conventional magnitude spectrum-based algorithms.

Recovering the Zipfian Distribution in Unsupervised Term Discovery

Unsupervised term discovery involves segmenting unlabelled speech into word- or syllable-like units and clustering these into a lexicon of candidate types. True lexicons follow a Zipfian distribution, yet the dominant centre-based clustering approach -- K-means -- produces a more uniform distribution due to an inductive bias toward spherical clusters. In this paper we revisit graph-based clustering as a bottom-up alternative, where segment embeddings are connected by pairwise similarity and partitioned using the Leiden algorithm. We show that graph clustering substantially outperforms centre-based approaches (K-means, GMM, BIRCH) in both word- and syllable-level lexicon discovery across three languages, producing more Zipf-like distributions. Another bottom-up approach, agglomerative clustering with average linkage, also performs well, although it is computationally less efficient and allows for less control over the resulting distribution. Our work calls into question the dominance of centre-based clustering for term discovery, and promotes graph clustering as an attractive alternative.

Preserving Speech-to-Text LLM Capabilities in Speech-to-Speech Generation

Strong speech-to-text (S2T) LLMs already provide robust speech perception and text reasoning, but adding speech-to-speech (S2S) output is challenging: fine-tuning the backbone can degrade the original S2T performance, while attaching a downstream talker reintroduces a serial text-to-speech bottleneck. We present PRIME-Speech, a frozen-backbone S2S conversion framework that trains only speech-generation modules. PRIME-Speech synchronizes a causal audio post-decoder with intermediate hidden states of the frozen backbone, so codec tokens are generated from the model's evolving reasoning trajectory rather than from completed text chunks. The post-decoder uses mixed hidden-state, text, and audio-history conditioning, and a training-time packing strategy with turn-level audio KV-cache and position reset stabilizes multi-turn spoken interaction without additional multi-turn S2S training data. Multi-token prediction further reduces the effective codec prediction rate and improves first-audio latency without modifying the reasoning path. Across speech translation, spoken QA, speech understanding, and multi-turn dialogue, PRIME-Speech preserves the S2T behavior of the frozen backbone while producing accurate, low-WER spoken responses.

Brain2Speech-Net: Fast and Intelligible Brain-to-Speech Synthesis Without Text Decoding

The loss of speech limits communication for individuals with paralysis. Direct neural-to-speech synthesis is challenging due to the limited availability of neural data for training speech brain-computer interfaces. Most existing systems rely on cascaded neural-to-text-to-speech pipelines, which increase inference latency and propagate errors across stages. We present Brain2Speech-Net, a single-stage neural-to-speech generation framework without intermediate text decoding. We use a differentiable phoneme bottleneck and a deep-HMM alignment mechanism to map long neural recordings into the latent space of a text-to-speech (TTS) model, enabling high-quality speech synthesis. Brain2Speech-Net is the only system in our comparison that produces intelligible speech while generating faster than real time.
