Before the Warning Comes Too Late: Incremental Phone-Scam Detection from Speech

Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →

The paper introduces StreamFraudNet, a weakly supervised model that detects phone scams from raw telephone audio in an incremental fashion. It processes audio through overlapping windows with a frozen self‑supervised encoder, uses recurrent temporal modeling, and aggregates window scores to update predictions every two seconds. On an English benchmark, the model achieves a ROC‑AUC of 0.9953, outperforming baselines while producing its first prediction after 10 seconds and running faster than real time.

TeleAntiFraud 2.0: A Refreshable, Profile-Grounded, and Audio-Based Benchmark for Telecom Fraud Detection

TeleAntiFraud 2.0 is a monthly‑frozen, audio‑based benchmark for telecom fraud detection that incorporates newly observed scam patterns while preserving earlier test sets. It uses a Mixed‑Tree Anti‑Fraud Generation Pipeline to create profile‑grounded scenarios, expands them into mixed‑tree dialogues, and renders validated speech for 900 Chinese calls (600 fraud, 300 near‑domain non‑fraud) each month. Experiments show that classifiers perform well against unrelated negatives but drop significantly against near‑domain negatives, highlighting the need for near‑domain construction and collapse‑aware reporting in realistic evaluation settings.

FRAUDSkill: Structured Frozen-Weight Skill Optimization for Audio Anti-Fraud Detection

FRAUDSkill is a structured frozen‑weight adaptation framework for audio anti‑fraud detection that keeps the underlying audio‑language model unchanged while optimizing external skill programs, route‑specific policies, and decision rules. It combines structured output control with validation‑guided multi‑path inference to produce protocol‑compliant predictions. On the TeleAntiFraud benchmark, FRAUDSkill achieves a 73.50% Macro‑F1 score, outperforming the shared frozen‑model baseline by 31.96% and reducing invalid outputs to 1.94%.
