Flow-HOA: Generative Joint Optimization for Ambisonics Encoding via Flow Matching
Announce Type: new Abstract: Higher-Order Ambisonics (HOA) encoding from sparse, irregular microphone arrays remains a critical challenge for consumer spatial audio capture in immersive communication and XR. We propose Flow-HOA, a generative framework that jointly optimizes a multi-dimensional objective encompassing time-domain, spectral, and spatial fidelity while producing a deployable, time-invariant bank of Finite Impulse Response (FIR) encoding filters. Using conditional flow matching,...
'We were being bullied in our own home': How 'authoritarian' HOAs are contributing to the insect apocalypse
'We were being bullied in our own home': How 'authoritarian' HOAs are contributing to the insect apocalypse In the book "Bitter Honey," writer and researcher Jennie Durant explores how industrial agriculture is destroying bees — and what can be done to stop them. There's an army of tiny workers buzzing around our fields, helping our food grow. But over the past few decades, populations of bees and other insect pollinators have dropped precipitously.
SHB-AE: Spherical harmonic beamforming based Ambisonics encoding and upscaling method for smartphone microphone array
Announce Type: new Abstract: With the rapid development of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), spatial audio recording and reproduction have gained increasing research interest. Higher Order Ambisonics (HOA) stands out for its adaptability to various playback devices and its ability to integrate head orientation. However, current HOA recordings often rely on bulky spherical microphone arrays (SMA), and portable devices like smartphones are limited by array configuration and...

A broken trash compactor has left one Georgia neighborhood piled under garbage One resident claimed that the community has not had an HOA meeting in over a decade - Bookmark - CommentsGo to comments Residents of a Georgia townhome community say they are being forced to live with overflowing, foul-smelling garbage after what they describe as more than a decade of neglect by their homeowners’ association, turning their neighborhood into an ongoing health hazard. Homeowners in the Reserve at...
DiffAU: Diffusion-Based Ambisonics Upscaling
arXiv:2510.00180v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Spatial audio enhances immersion by reproducing 3D sound fields, with Ambisonics offering a scalable format for this purpose. While first-order Ambisonics (FOA) notably facilitates hardware-efficient acquisition and storage of sound fields as compared to high-order Ambisonics (HOA), its low spatial resolution limits realism, highlighting the need for Ambisonics upscaling (AU) as an approach for increasing the order of Ambisonics...

'Animals were imprisoned in jails where humans were incarcerated': The bizarre trials of the Late Middle Ages — and surprising lack of criminal cats
'Animals were imprisoned in jails where humans were incarcerated': The bizarre trials of the Late Middle Ages — and surprising lack of criminal cats Animal trials took place across Europe from the Late Middle Ages until the end of the 18th century. In this excerpt from "Cats: A History", Rod Phillips explores this strange practice, and looks why cats appear to have been largely law-abiding. In this excerpt from "Cats: A History" (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2026), author Rod Phillips,...
Silicon Valley’s new buyout playbook is hitting Wall Street
Venture capital is buying its way into the artificial intelligence transformation that enterprise software hasn't delivered. Instead of selling AI tools to companies, venture firms are buying legacy companies outright and rebuilding them around AI from the inside. The bet puts VCs on offense and leaves traditional private equity, which spent the last cycle buying enterprise software at peak prices, on defense.
