arXiv:2607. 26607v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Few-shot Open-set audio classification requires classifying query samples from known classes with a few labeled support samples while rejecting query samples from unknown classes.

arXiv:2606. 08898v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In the task of few-shot class-incremental audio classification, the number of classes is assumed to always increase without considering the possibility of decrease.

arXiv:2605. 13672v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Few-shot classification (FSC) is widely used for learning from limited labeled data, yet most evaluations implicitly assume that target concepts are independent of contextual cues.

arXiv:2605. 13075v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Few-shot spoken word classification has largely been developed for applications where a small number of classes is considered, and so the potential of larger-scale few-shot spoken word classification remains untapped.

arXiv:2512. 10120v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: General-purpose audio representations aim to map acoustically variable instances of the same event to nearby points, resolving content identity in a zero-shot setting.

arXiv:2606. 31587v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio-Language Models (ALMs) achieve strong zero-shot performance by aligning audio with textual class descriptions.
By Asif Hanif, Mohammad Yaqub
We benchmark eleven audio classification methods: five task-aware closed-set LLMs (four Gemini models plus open-weight Kimi-Audio-7B-Instruct), four fixed-vocabulary taggers (YAMNet, PANNs, Whisper-AT, and SSLAM), a zero-shot audio-text model (CLAP), and an audio-grounded LLM (BAT). We evaluate them on a closed-set sound-source identification task over 2,242 clips spanning 23 fine-grained classes and 11 categories.
