Open-Set Source Tracing as Compositional Factors via Structured Prototypes

Santiago Rubio, Antonio Almudévar, Antonio Miguel, Eduardo Lleida, Alfonso Ortega

Recent research expands beyond binary anti-spoofing with the emergence of Source Tracing, the task of identifying the specific generative origins of synthetic speech. However, current research often equates a "source" with its generative architecture. We propose redefining a source as a compositional tuple of Architecture, Training Data, and other training factors affecting the generated speech. We propose a framework using Structured Orthonormal Prototypes to minimize class overlap and intra-class variance. Our Subspace Partitioning strategy splits the embedding into architecture and data subspaces, while a residual subspace captures stochastic variability, enabling "compositional generalization" for novel factor combinations. This approach improves performance for partially seen sources and maintains robustness in fully open-set scenarios. MLAAD evaluations for Few-Shot open-set Identification show our approach significantly outperforms angular-margin baselines.

Versatile On-device Adaptation at the Edge by Unifying Few-shot, Zero-shot, Continual, and In-context Learning

Douwe den Blanken, Martin Lefebvre, Charlotte Frenkel

With the ever-increasing pervasiveness of smart edge devices, the demand is growing for applications that can be tailored to users (e.g., custom keyword spotting) or patients (e.g., adaptive health monitoring). Yet, most edge devices rely on fixed inference algorithms and thus ca…

Stable Autoregressive Speech Generation with Low-Frame-Rate High-Dimensional Continuous Tokens

Yi Luo, Rongzhi Gu, Jixun Yao

Balancing sequence length, representational capacity, and long-horizon stability is a central problem in autoregressive (AR) speech and audio generation. Representations with higher frame rates or greater capacity can preserve more signal detail, but they also make streaming gene…

Evolution-Aware MSA Reasoning for Subsampling via Factor Graphs

Zhangzhi Xiong, Minzhang Li, Haotian Yu, Sixian Shen, Kexin Zhang, Mingrui Li, et al.

Multiple Sequence Alignments (MSAs) provide protein language models with explicit evolutionary context, but their large depth makes subsampling unavoidable under limited token budgets. Existing strategies, including random selection, identity-based filtering, and diversity-driven…

Barzilai-Borwein Fails Superlinear Convergence on an Open Set of Quadratics for Every Dimension $n\geq 4$

Dawei Li, Xiaotian Jiang, Mingyi Hong

Barzilai--Borwein (BB) method has shown strong practical performance in continuous optimization, yet its convergence dynamics remains poorly understood. In particular, a central unresolved question is whether BB converges superlinearly for almost every strictly convex quadratic p…
