Distributed multichannel active noise control (DMCANC) reduces the computational burden of centralized ANC systems by distributing processing tasks across multiple nodes, while requiring information exchange to achieve satisfactory global noise reduction. To improve robustness under communication delays, the auto-shrink step size mixed-gradients filtered reference LMS (ASSS-MGDFxLMS) algorithm has been proposed. However, the reduced step size inevitably slows convergence. In this work, an adaptive momentum term is introduced to accelerate convergence, where cosine similarity is used to evaluate the alignment between the instantaneous gradient and the momentum component and dynamically adjust the momentum parameter. This design accelerates convergence when the directions are consistent while preserving stability under delayed communication. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed adaptive momentum ASSS-MGDFxLMS (AMAS-MGDFxLMS) algorithm achieves faster convergence than ASSS-MGDFxLMS while maintaining stable and effective noise reduction performance.
Generative fixed-filter active noise control (GFANC) effectively attenuates noise with diverse frequency characteristics through the combination of sub control filters. However, it does not incorporate the spatial information of the noise source, which limits its performance, par…
Industrial sound design requires audio generation systems that not only produce realistic audio, but also preserve the perceptual identity of a reference, support controllable variation, and remain efficient for practical workflows. Existing evaluations are usually tied to text-t…
Zero-shot text-guided editing of real-world music recordings requires balancing semantic modification with faithful preservation of the original musical structure. Although recent diffusion transformers trained with rectified flow have achieved remarkable success in text-to-music…
WaveNet-style convolutional networks emulate tube amplifiers and distortion pedals with high fidelity, but their computational cost has confined them to desktops or dedicated DSP hardware. We present a sparse-enabled WaveNet inference engine for iOS that runs heavily pruned neura…
The increasing usage of electric vehicles in urban environments has resulted in a widespread presence of AVAS sounds. While individual vehicle sound design and testing is a common approach, real-world traffic scenarios often involve the simultaneous presence of multiple vehicles.…
Representation alignment (REPA) has been investigated to accelerate diffusion training, but we observe that regularizing intermediate representations in diffusion Transformers (DiT) may implicitly entangle latents and limit generative capacity. To address this issue, we propose R…
