Training DeepFilterNet with Accurate Room Acoustic Simulations Improves Single-Channel Speech Enhancement

The study examines how the realism of synthetic room impulse response (RIR) datasets influences the training of DeepFilterNet3 for single‑channel speech enhancement. By comparing a DNS4 image‑source‑method RIR set with a higher‑fidelity hybrid wave‑based and geometrical acoustics RIR set, the authors find that the more realistic dataset consistently improves objective speech enhancement metrics and significantly reduces ASR word error rates on unseen measured RIRs. The results suggest that overall realism in synthetic acoustic training data enhances DeepFilterNet3’s generalization to new environments.

PathRIR: Physics-Guided Acoustic Path Selection and Late-Tail Compensation for Fast Room Impulse Response Simulation

arXiv:2607. 23293v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image-source-method (ISM)-based room impulse response (RIR) simulation is a useful and physically interpretable tool for acoustic scene modeling, but full-order ISM becomes computationally expensive as the reflection order and room complexity increase.

From Sounds to Scenes: A Benchmark for Evaluating Context-Aware Auditory Scene Understanding in Large Audio Language Models

Recent Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) have achieved remarkable progress in audio perceptual tasks across individual acoustic layers, including speech, sound, and music. However, existing benchmarks predominantly evaluate these layers in isolation, overlooking the complex contextual relationships that arise when multiple acoustic sources co-occur in real-world auditory scenes.
