Auditory Scene-Attention Model For Speech Enhancement
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this work, we propose a new speech enhancement model referred to as auditory scene-attention model (ASAM), that can adapt dynamically to changes in the auditory scene components, such as speaker gender, input SNR levels, and background noise properties. To this end, a representative set of so-called Universal Scene Models (USM), each associated to a different auditory scene component, are first created, where each model attempts to predict a corresponding ideal ratio mask (IRM). The dynamic adaptation to changes in the auditory scene is then carried by computing the outputs of the USMs and forming a weighted combination of the most relevant scene models. This adaptation process is implemented via a frame-based attention mechanism, allowing to realize a soft selection of USM models, and taking advantage from both scene-dependent and scene-independent models. The evaluation of the proposed ASAM model, under different noise conditions and input SNR levels, shows substantial improvements in terms of standard speech Quality and intelligibility measures.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
