arXiv:2606. 06357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continuous audio autoencoders reconstruct waveforms well but often produce latents with weak structure for understanding, while self-supervised audio encoders capture semantics but are not directly decodable.

Dominant audio classification pipelines rely either on compact handcrafted summaries or on fixed time-frequency frontends such as log-mel representations prior to deep modeling. While highly successfu...

arXiv:2607. 00720v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the increasing sophistication of industrial AI systems, the ability to reliably detect subtle and noisy anomalies in complex time series data remains a critical yet unresolved challenge.

MADS (Multi-view Acoustic Descriptor Set) is a compact 19‑dimensional, physics‑informed descriptor set designed to capture spectral, temporal, mechanical, and stochastic aspects of audio signals. Unlike traditional log‑mel or MFCC representations, MADS encodes excitation, damping, periodicity, impulsiveness, and structural consistency in a unified multi‑view format. Evaluated on ESC‑10, ESC‑50, and MSoS datasets with classical machine learning models, MADS outperforms conventional 26‑D MFCC and 38‑D spectral‑summary baselines, achieving 81.00% on ESC‑10, 52.78% on ESC‑50, and 67.48% on MSoS while using roughly half the dimensionality of the 38‑D baseline.
