AT-ADD: A Benchmark and Challenge for Robust and All-Type Audio Deepfake Detection

Abstract

Recent audio generation models can synthesize high-fidelity speech, environmental sound, singing voice, and music, creating new risks for multimedia trust. Existing audio deepfake detection (ADD) benchmarks remain predominantly speech-centric and often underrepresent realistic channel variation and diverse audio types. This paper presents AT-ADD, a large-scale benchmark and challenge designed to evaluate both robust speech deepfake detection and all-type audio deepfake detection. Track 1 evaluates binary speech detection under unseen generators, diverse recording conditions, signal perturbations, and replay effects. Track 2 evaluates type-agnostic real/fake detection over speech, sound, singing, and music when the audio type is unknown at test time. We detail the dataset construction, evaluation protocol, and reproducible baselines, and analyze the final systems submitted to the ACM Multimedia 2026 Grand Challenge. The strongest official baseline obtains 76.73% and 79.47% Macro-F1 on the Track 1 and Track 2 evaluation sets, respectively, whereas the winning challenge systems reach 90.71% and 96.10%. Beyond aggregate rankings, sample-level analysis of the top five submissions examines generator- and type-level difficulty, cross-system error complementarity, and ranking stability. The results show that large-scale self-supervised representations, condition-aware augmentation, multi-crop inference, and structured fusion or routing are central to generalization, while generator-specific robustness and consistent performance across diverse audio types remain unresolved.

Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 Technical Report

Recently, large language model (LLM) based ASR models have achieved significant progress, yet they generally lack support for multi-speaker scenarios, where the cocktail party problem remains a critical bottleneck for further advancing ASR. Existing TS-ASR methods, including end-to-end architectures with speaker embeddings and latest LLM-based explorations suffer from degraded single-speaker performance and the inability to reject when the target speaker is absent. In this paper, we propose Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1, an LLM-based end-to-end TS-ASR architecture. By utilizing reference speech as voiceprint prompts, it directly transcribes the target speaker's speech without requiring speech separation. Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 maintains competitive performance in single-speaker scenarios, comparable to mainstream ASR models. It also features a negative sample rejection capability, outputting empty text when the target speaker is absent from the mixed speech. Additionally, Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 supports a Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning mode to provide explicit reasoning steps. Extensive experiments on various synthetic and real-world multispeaker benchmarks demonstrate that Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 achieves state-of-the-art performance, effectively addressing the cocktail party problem through a unified architecture that balances multispeaker and single-speaker recognition accuracy, along with rejection capability.

EConv-TasNet: Efficient Conv-TasNet for Effective Speech Separation

Conv-TasNet has served as a strong baseline for time-domain speech separation, and many studies have extended it with advanced architectures such as dual-path networks, U-Nets, and attention mechanisms. However, these methods often introduce high computational cost and complexity, limiting their deployment in resource-constrained scenarios. To address this issue, we propose eConv-TasNet, an efficient variant of Conv-TasNet that improves both effectiveness and efficiency without relying on resource-intensive modules. The proposed model consists of a group-wise early-splitting (GES) module and a multi-group feature aggregation (MGFA) module. GES generates discriminative speaker embeddings at intermediate stages, while MGFA progressively aggregates these group-level representations for refined mask estimation. Experimental results show that eConv-TasNet reduces model size by 22.4%, accelerates inference by 18.9%, and improves SI-SNRi by 14.0%-28.0% across three public benchmarks. Moreover, it achieves competitive performance compared with state-of-the-art methods while requiring significantly fewer parameters and lower inference cost. These results demonstrate a favorable efficiency-effectiveness trade-off for edge deployment.
