Abstract

Modern neural network-based speech processing systems usually need to have reverberation resistance, so the training of such systems requires a large amount of reverberation data. In the process of system training, it is now more inclined to use sampling static systems to simulate dynamic systems, or to supplement data through actually recorded data. However, this cannot fundamentally solve the problem of simulating motion data that conforms to physical laws. Aiming at the core issue of insufficient training data for speech enhancement models in moving scenarios, this paper proposes Yang's motion spatio-temporal sampling reconstruction theory to realize efficient simulation of motion continuous time-varying reverberation. This theory breaks through the limitations of the traditional static Image-Source Method (ISM) in time-varying systems. By decomposing the impulse response of the moving image source into two parts: linear time-invariant modulation and discrete time-varying fractional delay, a moving sound field model conforming to physical laws is established. Based on the band-limited characteristics of motion displacement, a hierarchical sampling strategy is proposed: high sampling rate is used for low-order images to retain details, and low sampling rate is used for high-order images to reduce computational complexity. A fast synthesis architecture is designed to realize real-time simulation. Experiments show that compared with the open-source models, the proposed theory can more accurately restore the amplitude and phase changes in moving scenarios, solving the industry problem of motion sound source data simulation, and providing high-quality dynamic training data for speech enhancement models.

Revisiting Lexicon Evaluation in Unsupervised Word Discovery

Building a lexicon from discovered word-like units is a central goal in zero-resource speech processing. But do our evaluations provide a trustworthy indication of lexicon quality? A common metric, normalized edit distance, averages the phoneme edit distances between discovered units in each cluster. We show that this metric has an inherent bias toward the quality of large clusters, inhibiting fair evaluation. Moreover, it ignores how well true classes are distributed across clusters. Based on established theory in clustering literature, we propose two metrics that address these shortcomings: a modified metric that weighs cluster size when assessing within-cluster consistency, and an inverse metric that assesses how true words are spread across clusters. Through experiments on synthetic and real-world lexicons, we demonstrate that combined, these metrics are: (1) more closely correlated with how similar a lexicon is to the ground-truth distribution, and (2) more robust to biases that skew lexicon evaluations.

AURA: Uncertainty-Routed Activation Editing for Acoustic Grounding in Speech Foundation Models

Attention encoder-decoder (AED) Speech Foundation Models achieve strong ASR performance but can generate acoustically unsupported text when inputs contain no speech, weak acoustic evidence, or unreliable transcription. We propose AURA: Activation-editing with Uncertainty-Routed Adaptation, an ultra-efficient representation-editing method that freezes the pretrained model and applies sparse scale-and-shift edits to decoder cross-attention heads. AURA dynamically routes edits using cross-attention uncertainty features that capture over-concentration, diffuse attention, and abrupt frame shifts. We evaluate AURA on four datasets spanning non-speech hallucination and speech grounding stressors, including imperfect-label child speech, imperfect-label adult speech, and disfluent speech. On non-speech audio, AURA reduces hallucination rate from 89.18% to 1.94% without prior hallucination-head identification. On imperfect-label corpora, AURA approaches LoRA WER while using roughly 500x fewer trainable parameters. Sensitivity analysis and qualitative cross-attention examples are consistent with AURA's uncertainty-routed editing behavior, supporting dynamic activation editing as a practical path for grounding AED speech models.

The design of an optomechanical microphone using a photonic waveguide interferometer

We present an optomechanical microphone based on a diaphragm-integrated photonic waveguide Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Acoustic pressure deforms the MEMS diaphragm, inducing strain in the sensing waveguide and changing its optical path length. We analytically evaluate the optical and mechanical transduction mechanisms and key figures of merit, including signal-to-noise ratio, dynamic range, acoustic overload pressure, and minimum detectable pressure. Two design cases are considered: a MEMS microphone and a measurement microphone. The results indicate competitive performance but no substantial overall advantage over state-of-the-art microphones in conventional applications. The architecture may nevertheless offer advantages for high-temperature and other harsh-environment sensing applications.
