arXiv:2608. 14824v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a parameter-free episodic evaluation of nearest-centroid classification for elephant vocalisations on fixed pretrained acoustic embeddings, across the Elephant Voices (EV) and Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) datasets.
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:2607. 01297v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most existing audio classification methods suppose that each query (testing) sample belongs to a class of support (training) samples, and misrecognize samples of unseen classes as seen classes (cannot reject samples of unseen classes).

arXiv:2607. 14474v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper details the DS@GT ARC team's approach to BirdCLEF+ 2026, multi-label detection of animal vocalizations in soundscapes from the Pantanal wetlands.
arXiv:2607. 13555v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bioacoustic call-type classification relies on costly expert annotation.
arXiv:2606. 14662v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pretrained audio embeddings are standard in bioacoustics, yet little is known about which acoustic features these models encode, nor which are useful for a given task.
arXiv:2607. 03806v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio foundation models are widely adopted as general-purpose feature extractors, yet the internal structure of their learned representations remains insufficiently understood.
arXiv:2608. 15632v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural representations have become a central tool for studying the internal mechanisms of modern AI models, yet their complex high-dimensional structure makes them difficult to interpret.
arXiv:2607. 08256v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Best-of-$N$ (BoN) inference improves content consistency in zero-shot text-to-speech by selecting from $N$ candidates with an automatic speech recognition (ASR) verifier.
arXiv:2607. 11007v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Few-shot multimodal classification commonly attaches a lightweight head, such as $k$-nearest neighbors, logistic regression, or a linear SVM, to a frozen pretrained encoder.
arXiv:2607. 09832v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-tailed recognition methods often modify losses, margins, or representations to reduce the dominance of frequent classes.
arXiv:2606. 04210v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Randomized smoothing (RS) certifies robustness in the vector space where Gaussian noise is added.
