• Abstract: This letter introduces EGGCodec, a robust neural Encodec framework engineered for electroglottography (EGG) signal reconstruction and F0 extraction. We propose a multi-scale frequency-domain loss function to capture the nuanced relationship between original and reconstructed EGG signals, complemented by a time-domain correlation loss to improve generalization and accuracy. Unlike conventional Encodec models that extract F0 directly from features, EGGCodec leverages reconstructed EGG signals, which more closely correspond to F0. By removing the conventional GAN discriminator, we streamline EGGCodec's training process without compromising efficiency, incurring only negligible performance degradation. Trained on a widely used EGG-inclusive dataset, extensive evaluations demonstrate that EGGCodec outperforms state-of-the-art F0 extraction schemes, reducing mean absolute error (MAE) from 14.14 Hz to 13.69 Hz, and improving voicing decision error (VDE) by 38.2\%. Moreover, extensive ablation experiments validate the contribution of each component of EGGCodec.

  We introduce three novel Variational Autoencoder (VAE) variants: Autoencoder (SAE), Annealed beta-VAE (Abeta-VAE), and cyclical beta-VAE (Cbeta-VAE) The Abeta-VAE achieved superior signal reconstruction, reducing the mean absolute error (MAE) to 15.7 plus-minus 3.2 microvolts, which is at the level of signal noise. Our findings demonstrate that these VAE encodings are not only effective in simplifying ECG data but also provide a practical solution for applying deep learning in contexts with limited-scale labeled training data

• ALF: Adaptive Label Finetuning for Scene Graph Generation [116.59868289196157]
  Scene Graph Generation endeavors to predict the relationships between subjects and objects in a given image. Long-tail distribution of relations often leads to biased prediction on coarse labels, presenting a substantial hurdle in SGG. We introduce one-stage data transfer pipeline in SGG, termed Adaptive Label Finetuning (ALF), which eliminates the need for extra retraining sessions. ALF achieves a 16% improvement in mR@100 compared to the typical SGG method Motif, with only a 6% increase in calculation costs compared to the state-of-the-art method IETrans.
