DAFMSVC: One-Shot Singing Voice Conversion with Dual Attention Mechanism and Flow Matching

Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Wei Chen, Wei Chen, , , | Summary: Singing Voice Conversion (SVC) transfers a source singer’s timbre to a target while keeping melody and lyrics. The key challenge in any-to-any SVC is adapting unseen speaker timbres to source audio without quality degradation. Existing methods either face timbre […]

Model Accuracy and Data Heterogeneity Shape Uncertainty Quantification in Machine Learning Interatomic Potentials

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Fei Shuang, Fei Shuang, , , | Summary: Machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) enable accurate atomistic modelling, but reliable uncertainty quantification (UQ) remains elusive. In this study, we investigate two UQ strategies, ensemble learning and D-optimality, within the atomic cluster expansion framework. It is revealed that higher […]
