arXiv:2607. 04526v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: First-shot anomalous sound detection in DCASE Challenge Task 2 must flag anomalies of unseen machine types with a single threshold, without knowing whether a test clip comes from the data-rich source domain (990 normal training clips) or the data-scarce target domain (10).

arXiv:2606. 06335v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Performance estimation under distribution shift aims to predict how a model behaves on an unlabeled test set whose distribution differs from the training data, a scenario that requires reliable indicators that can faithfully reflect model behavior without ground-truth labels.

arXiv:2606. 10908v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce a spoofing countermeasure architecture conditioned on speaker-reference recordings, but observe that it converges to a solution that effectively ignores the reference during inference.

arXiv:2605. 07694v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Single-channel speaker distance estimation has recently achieved centimeter-level accuracy in simulated environments, yet it remains unclear which components of the room impulse response (RIR) the model exploits and how performance depends on the recording conditions.

arXiv:2508. 17077v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current experimental scientists have been increasingly relying on simulation-based inference (SBI) to invert complex non-linear models with intractable likelihoods.

arXiv:2606. 30821v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Probabilistic downscaling is the task of modeling the conditional distribution of high-resolution fields given coarse inputs, and is a central challenge to atmospheric science, climate modeling, and other multiscale physical systems.

arXiv:2608. 13817v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human speech production is constrained by physiology, giving rise to characteristic temporal structure on acoustic signals.

Active testing provides a label--efficient approach to risk estimation by adaptively selecting which test points should be labelled. However, existing estimators fail to exploit the informative predictions of powerful black--box models, even though such predictions are increasingly available in settings where labels remain expensive.
