AnyBand: Unified Multi-Bandwidth Speech Extension via Frequency-Aware In-Context Spectral Infilling

Bandwidth extension (BWE) aims to recover missing high-frequency content from band-limited speech. Existing methods often formulate BWE as a fixed or predefined bandwidth conversion problem, potentially requiring cutoff-specific models or retraining when the input bandwidth changes. This assumption limits their applicability to practical scenarios where speech may arrive with diverse cutoff frequencies. We propose AnyBand, a unified BWE framework that recasts bandwidth extension as in-context spectral infilling. Motivated by prompt-based zero-shot speech generation, AnyBand conditions high-frequency generation on the observed low-frequency spectrum, using the available band as a frequency-domain prompt that conveys content, speaker, prosodic, and spectral-envelope cues. This formulation enables a single model to perform cutoff-conditioned generation over a continuous range of input bandwidths. AnyBand is trained with missing-band conditional flow matching and an Easy-to-Balanced cutoff curriculum over continuously sampled cutoff frequencies. To better exploit the spectral prompt, we introduce a frequency-aware Diffusion Transformer that models cross-frequency interactions and long-range temporal dependencies, followed by a physically motivated multi-view adversarial refinement stage to enhance spectral realism, envelope coherence, and harmonic consistency. Experiments on multiple datasets and bandwidth settings show that AnyBand consistently improves spectral reconstruction over existing baselines while achieving competitive perceptual quality across both standard and irregular input cutoffs. Audio samples are available.

MSpoofTTS: Multi-Resolution Spoof-Guided Inference for Discrete Speech Synthesis

Neural codec language models enable high-quality discrete speech synthesis, yet their inference remains vulnerable to token-level artifacts and distributional drift that degrade perceptual realism. Rather than relying on preference optimization or retraining, we propose MSpoof-TTS, a training-free inference framework that improves zero-shot synthesis through multi-resolution spoof guidance. We introduce a Multi-Resolution Token-based Spoof Detection framework that evaluates codec sequences at different temporal granularities to detect locally inconsistent or unnatural patterns. We then integrate the spoof detectors into a hierarchical decoding strategy, progressively pruning low-quality candidates and re-ranking hypotheses. This discriminator-guided generation enhances robustness without modifying model parameters. Experiments validate the effectiveness of our framework for robust and high-quality codec-based speech generation. Audio samples and code are available.

A Trainable Centrality Framework for Modern Data

Measuring how central or typical a data point is underpins robust estimation, ranking, and outlier detection, but classical depth notions become expensive and unstable in high dimensions and are hard to extend beyond Euclidean data. We introduce Fused Unified centrality Score Estimation (FUSE), a neural centrality framework that operates on top of arbitrary representations. FUSE combines a global head, trained from pairwise distance-based comparisons to learn an anchor-free centrality score, with a local head, trained by denoising score matching to approximate a smoothed log-density potential. A single parameter between 0 and 1 interpolates between these calibrated signals, yielding depth-like centrality from different views via one forward pass. Across synthetic distributions, real images, time series, and text data, and standard outlier detection benchmarks, FUSE recovers meaningful classical ordering, reveals multi-scale geometric structures, and attains competitive performance with strong classical baselines while remaining simple and efficient.

FactFlow: Automatic Fact Sheet Generation and Customization from Tabular Dataset via AI Chain Design & Implementation

With the proliferation of data across various domains, there is a critical demand for tools that enable non-experts to derive meaningful insights without deep data analysis skills. To address this need, existing automatic fact sheet generation tools offer heuristic-based solutions to extract facts and generate stories. However, they inadequately grasp the semantics of data and struggle to generate narratives that fully capture the semantics of the dataset or align the fact sheet with specific user needs. Addressing these shortcomings, this paper introduces \tool, a novel tool designed for the automatic generation and customisation of fact sheets. \tool applies the concept of collaborative AI workers to transform raw tabular dataset into comprehensive, visually compelling fact sheets. We define effective taxonomy to profile AI worker for specialised tasks. Furthermore, \tool empowers users to refine these fact sheets through intuitive natural language commands, ensuring the final outputs align closely with individual preferences and requirements. Our user evaluation with 18 participants confirms that \tool not only surpasses state-of-the-art baselines in automated fact sheet production but also provides a positive user experience during customization tasks.

GPTVoiceTasker: Advancing Multi-step Mobile Task Efficiency Through Dynamic Interface Exploration and Learning

Virtual assistants have the potential to play an important role in helping users achieves different tasks. However, these systems face challenges in their real-world usability, characterized by inefficiency and struggles in grasping user intentions. Leveraging recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs), we introduce GptVoiceTasker, a virtual assistant poised to enhance user experiences and task efficiency on mobile devices. GptVoiceTasker excels at intelligently deciphering user commands and executing relevant device interactions to streamline task completion. The system continually learns from historical user commands to automate subsequent usages, further enhancing execution efficiency. Our experiments affirm GptVoiceTasker's exceptional command interpretation abilities and the precision of its task automation module. In our user study, GptVoiceTasker boosted task efficiency in real-world scenarios by 34.85%, accompanied by positive participant feedback. We made GptVoiceTasker open-source, inviting further research into LLMs utilization for diverse tasks through prompt engineering and leveraging user usage data to improve efficiency.

Voicify Your UI: Towards Android App Control with Voice Commands

Nowadays, voice assistants help users complete tasks on the smartphone with voice commands, replacing traditional touchscreen interactions when such interactions are inhibited. However, the usability of those tools remains moderate due to the problems in understanding rich language variations in human commands, along with efficiency and comprehensibility issues. Therefore, we introduce Voicify, an Android virtual assistant that allows users to interact with on-screen elements in mobile apps through voice commands. Using a novel deep learning command parser, Voicify interprets human verbal input and performs matching with UI elements. In addition, the tool can directly open a specific feature from installed applications by fetching application code information to explore the set of in-app components. Our command parser achieved 90\% accuracy on the human command dataset. Furthermore, the direct feature invocation module achieves better feature coverage in comparison to Google Assistant. The user study demonstrates the usefulness of Voicify in real-world scenarios.
