UniAE-MoE is a unified audio encoder that uses a Mixture-of-Experts architecture to model cross‑domain audio representations. It integrates encoder components from Qwen2‑Audio and Audio‑Flamingo 3, enhances them with SwiGLU and shared experts, and applies a two‑stage instruction‑tuning strategy along with task‑specific data scaling. The model achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on the XARES‑LLM benchmark (0.802) and tops the Interspeech 2026 Audio Encoder Capability Challenge, demonstrating strong generalization across speech, music, and general audio tasks.

The paper introduces CAFNet, a lightweight cross‑attentive neural network that fuses MFCC, LFCC, and Chroma‑STFT features to detect and localise partially manipulated (half‑truth) speech. CAFNet achieves high ternary accuracy (97.55%) and low boundary mean absolute error (0.037 s) on the MLADDC benchmark, while demonstrating that cross‑corpus transfer depends on both capability and corpus characteristics. Ablation studies show that cross‑attention fusion is the most critical component, and removing a deeply supervised auxiliary head improves in‑domain performance and reduces variance.
