A Demand-Driven Perspective on Generative Audio AISangshin Oh, Minsung Kang, Hyeongi Moon et al.
To achieve successful deployment of AI research, it is crucial to understand the demands of the industry. In this paper, we present the results of a survey conducted with professional audio engineers, in order to determine research priorities and define various research tasks. We also summarize the current challenges in audio quality and controllability based on the survey. Our analysis emphasizes that the availability of datasets is currently the main bottleneck for achieving high-quality audio generation. Finally, we suggest potential solutions for some revealed issues with empirical evidence.

Diffusion-corrected Autoregressive Fourier Neural Operator for Droplet Evolution PredictionJinghao Cao, Minsung Kang, Hongyue Sun et al.
Predicting droplet evolution in material jetting, or Inkjet Printing (IJP), is essential for maintaining printing quality. However, long-horizon forecasts remain challenging due to error accumulation and the complex coupling of process variables. In this work, we introduce the Diffusion-corrected Auto-Regressive Fourier Neural Operator (DiffARFNO), a two-stage framework that combines an autoregressive Fourier-MIONet with a conditional Denoising Diffusion Implicit Model (DDIM) corrector. Fourier-MIONet is trained as a coarse predictor and deployed autoregressively for long-horizon forecasting. In the second stage, a DDIM-based conditional corrector refines the coarse prediction within each sliding window through efficient iterative denoising. By combining coarse predictions from Fourier-MIONet with a DDIM corrector that restores fine details, DiffARFNO aims to provide high-fidelity predictions for long-horizon forecasts. Extensive experiments on droplet datasets from ANSYS Fluent demonstrate that DiffARFNO significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art models.
