arXiv:2604. 14163v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Maritime distress communications transmitted over very high frequency (VHF) radio are safety-critical voice messages used to report emergencies at sea.
arXiv:2602. 17394v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-assisted networks are increasingly foreseen as a promising approach for emergency response, providing rapid, flexible, and resilient communications in environments where terrestrial infrastructure is degraded or unavailable.
arXiv:2607. 07733v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Passive hydroacoustic monitoring often generates large volumes of continuous recordings that are only partially exploited due to the cost of manual annotation.
arXiv:2608. 09930v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated Text-to-Speech (TTS) evaluation methods (Mean Opinion Score (MOS) predictors and Audio Large Language Models (Audio-LLM) judges) are expected to reflect human perception, yet it is unclear how well they capture the distinct aspects of speech that listeners actually perceive.
arXiv:2606. 18319v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Air Traffic Control Operators (ATCOs) are vital in ensuring the safe, orderly, and efficient flow of air traffic, yet training capacity is constrained by reliance on specialized human trainers known as simpilots, who must role-play both pilots and ATCOs in a simulated airspace.
arXiv:2607. 15861v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Moderation systems increasingly rely on external toxicity tools, but those tools are unreliable under code-mixing, transliteration, slang, and language mismatch.
arXiv:2606. 00160v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) suffer from degraded safety capabilities even when fine-tuned with benign datasets.
arXiv:2608. 09158v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large audio-language models (LALMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in understanding diverse audio inputs.
arXiv:2608. 04697v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Operational hazard analysis of aviation system operations must consider interactions among weather, ATC actions, airspace constraints, aircraft operations, and human factors - distinct from the functional hazard assessment applied at the aircraft-system level.
arXiv:2606. 02341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Underwater acoustic classification has a wide array of oceanic applications, but faces challenges due to an increasingly complex acoustic environment.
arXiv:2607. 21496v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cognitive impairment (CI) is a growing public health concern.
arXiv:2608. 14651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Effective disaster risk communication is a foundational humanitarian challenge, yet current emergency infrastructure fails to meet the needs of individuals with access and functional needs, including hard-of-hearing individuals, pregnant women, mothers with toddlers, and elderly individuals with dementia.
State-of-the-art speech datasets predominantly focus on widely spoken languages, often overlooking low-resource languages such as Luxembourgish, which remain underrepresented in speech technology research. In this work, we introduce LuxEmo, a 21-hour conversational expressive speech corpus for Luxembourgish with 4 emotion categories.
