EditVoice: Variable-Length Non-Autoregressive Zero-Shot TTS and Speech Editing with Edit Flows

Recent non-autoregressive (NAR) zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) models generate in parallel but typically require the target sequence length to be specified before generation. We introduce EditVoice, to our knowledge the first variable-length NAR zero-shot TTS model, which uses Edit Flows to jointly update speech content and sequence length through insertions, deletions, and substitutions. EditVoice adopts speech-infilling training, which unifies zero-shot TTS and text-based speech editing and allows both prefix and suffix speech prompt placements at inference. We introduce Complementary Prompt Sampling (CPS) to leverage the complementary Edit Flow predictions induced by the two prompt placements. We further find that EditVoice can edit source and model-generated speech beyond its training sources. We use this generalization for end-to-end editing and training-free post-generation refinement. With the Edit Flow model trained on 10K h of GigaSpeech, EditVoice demonstrates competitive zero-shot TTS performance on Seed-TTS Eval EN and LibriSpeech-PC and speech editing performance on RealEdit.

Spatial-Temporal Transformer with Curriculum Learning for EEG-Based Emotion Recognition

EEG-based emotion recognition plays an important role in developing adaptive brain-computer communication systems, yet faces two fundamental challenges in practical implementations: (1) effective integration of non-stationary spatial-temporal neural patterns, (2) robust adaptation to dynamic emotional intensity variations in real-world scenarios. This paper proposes SST-CL, a novel framework integrating spatial-temporal transformers with curriculum learning. Our method introduces two core components: a spatial encoder that models inter-channel relationships and a temporal encoder that captures multi-scale dependencies through windowed attention mechanisms, enabling simultaneous extraction of spatial correlations and temporal dynamics from EEG signals. Complementing this architecture, an intensity-aware curriculum learning strategy progressively guides training from high-intensity to low-intensity emotional states through dynamic sample scheduling based on a dual difficulty assessment. Comprehensive experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate state-of-the-art performance across various emotional intensity levels, with ablation studies confirming the necessity of both architectural components and the curriculum learning mechanism.

GraphRARE: Reinforcement Learning Enhanced Graph Neural Network with Relative Entropy

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have shown advantages in graph-based analysis tasks. However, most existing methods have the homogeneity assumption and show poor performance on heterophilic graphs, where the linked nodes have dissimilar features and different class labels, and the semantically related nodes might be multi-hop away. To address this limitation, this paper presents GraphRARE, a general framework built upon node relative entropy and deep reinforcement learning, to strengthen the expressive capability of GNNs. An innovative node relative entropy, which considers node features and structural similarity, is used to measure mutual information between node pairs. In addition, to avoid the sub-optimal solutions caused by mixing useful information and noises of remote nodes, a deep reinforcement learning-based algorithm is developed to optimize the graph topology. This algorithm selects informative nodes and discards noisy nodes based on the defined node relative entropy. Extensive experiments are conducted on seven real-world datasets. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of GraphRARE in node classification and its capability to optimize the original graph topology.
