The paper proposes a single‑utterance test‑time adaptation (TTA) method for speech enhancement that uses an autoregressive prior trained on clean speech latent representations from a neural audio codec. The adaptation regularizes a pretrained enhancement model by minimizing the Kullback‑Leibler divergence between the enhanced speech distribution and the clean speech prior. Experiments on multiple noisy speech datasets demonstrate consistent improvements in speech quality, especially when training and testing noise conditions differ.
