The **SUBESCO reserved test** was opened once after checkpoint selection. On four further unseen speakers, Aural One scored **0.344 macro-F1 over 1,012 unanimously perceived clips** among 1,400 recordings; listener-vote cross-entropy was **1.700** over all 1,400. Per-class F1 on unanimous clips was angry 0.469, disgusted 0.222, fearful 0.047, happy 0.358, neutral 0.581, sad 0.334, surprised 0.394. This is a speaker-held-out acted-emotion result, not a natural-conversation estimate.
|
| 22 |
+
|
| 23 |
+
On 40 same-speaker, same-words development contrasts, the selected model put the target relative emotion margin in the correct direction on **35/40**, versus **23/40** for the frozen reference. Both clips received the correct top seven-way emotion on **2/40** versus **1/40**. This indicates audio sensitivity while leaving room to improve complete class decisions.

## Other audio checks

|
| 27 |
+
| Check | Frozen reference | Aural One preview | Interpretation |
|
| 28 |
+
|---|---:|---:|---|
|
| 29 |
+
| Previously opened German EmoDB macro-F1 | 0.078 | **0.102** | 195 clips; exploratory transfer, not a blind test |
|
| 30 |
+
| Italian Emozionalmente development macro-F1 | **0.232** | 0.203 | 262 unanimous clips, 69 development actors across all 1,202 clips |
|
| 31 |
+
| Italian listener-vote cross-entropy ↓ | **2.492** | 2.545 | All 1,202 Italian development clips |
|
| 32 |
+
| Original 24-clip sound screen correct | 13/24 | **14/24** | Eight each of baby cry, laugh, cough; source-confounded |
|
| 33 |
+
| Draft ~60-second speech questions correct | — | **14/18** | Six development audiobook clips, three questions each |
|
| 34 |
+
| New natural 45–60-second MMAU-Pro speech questions correct | 16/39 | **18/39** | 39 distinct held-out waveforms; one question each |
|
| 35 |
+
|
| 36 |
+
On the small sound screen, Aural One answered baby cry **6/8**, laughter **8/8**, cough **0/8**. A subsequent **blind human review of a different, source-diverse 24-preview candidate set** confirmed 17 clear labels, found six mixed clips and one different sound. Those human-reviewed previews have **not been scored as model accuracy**. A second 14-clip replacement review is prepared. None of this candidate media is bundled with the release.
|
| 37 |
+
|
| 38 |
+
The 39-clip natural long-speech slice scored **18/39 with the real recording** and **11/39 after audio was swapped**. The two-answer gain over the frozen reference had a paired interval spanning zero; the median maximum choice probability on incorrect real-audio answers was 0.911. The earlier six-clip draft speech slice kept **18/18 top-choice parity** when three question suffixes shared audio processing, though three probability vectors exceeded a predeclared 0.03 parity tolerance (worst 0.0378). These sets establish task-specific behavior, not general 60-second audio understanding.
|

|

+
## Warm serving and cost
|
| 41 |
+
|
| 42 |
+
The fixed request here was a **57.89-second Opus recording (238 KB JSON)** with **three named choice questions**. Measurements used ten warm calls per single-request route after two warmups, and 12 calls per concurrency condition. The fast path processed shared audio once and right-batched question suffixes.
|
| 43 |
+
|
| 44 |
+
| Route | Client or pod-local wall p50 / p95 | Model p50 / p95 | Scope |
|
| 45 |
+
|---|---:|---:|---|
|
| 46 |
+
| RTX PRO 4500, Romania pod-local HTTP | **0.508 / 0.579 s** | 0.242 / 0.290 s | Same pod to authenticated app |
|
| 47 |
+
| Tokyo → Romania direct pod proxy | 2.086 / 2.498 s | ~0.24 / ~0.29 s | Internet client end to end |
|
| 48 |
+
| Tokyo → Japan H100 direct pod proxy | 1.635 / 1.952 s | ~0.21 s median | Different GPU/runtime and route |
|
| 49 |
+
|
| 50 |
+
At the Romania proxy, four concurrent clients achieved **2.029 successful requests/s** over 12 fixed requests with **2.211 s client p95** and 0.115 s queue p95; all top-choice vectors matched. At the Japan H100 proxy, four clients achieved **2.368 successful requests/s**, client p95 **1.888 s**, and queue p95 0.048 s over 12 calls. These short bursts are not sustained-capacity benchmarks.
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
At the observed Romania four-client throughput, allocating the displayed **$0.72/hour GPU price** gives **about $0.000099 per successful request**, or **$0.000061 per 1,000 shared input positions** for this request. This is a GPU-only allocation at sustained throughput; idle, disk, transfer, cold starts and network are excluded. It is not a token-billed price. The Japan H100 allocation was about $0.000409/request at $3.49/hour and the observed 2.368 RPS. The selected Stage-B run reported **11,006 MiB peak allocated GPU memory** during training and evaluation on the 32 GB RTX PRO 4500; minimum inference VRAM was not measured.
|
| 53 |
+
|
| 54 |
+
The Tokyo end-to-end sub-second target is **still a research target**. These HTTP tests used temporary authenticated pods, not a public serverless endpoint. Cold start, sustained load, broader schema choices, and production p95 remain to be measured.
|
| 55 |
+
|
| 56 |
+
The **public reference loader** was separately smoke-tested on a 24 GB RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell partition with PyTorch 2.13.0+cu130. It loaded the pinned release files, verified their hashes, and returned valid distributions for three named questions on both a short speech clip and a synthetic 58-second two-chunk audio input. The three sequential forwards took **5.128 s** on the first short run and **3.669 s** on the later 58-second run after model/base caching; PyTorch reported **9,774 MiB allocated**. These are functional smokes, not an accuracy or warm-service benchmark, and this simple loader does not implement the shared-audio fast path measured above.
|
| 57 |
+
|
| 58 |
+
## Training follow-ups
|
| 59 |
+
|
| 60 |
+
Two controlled 100-update follow-ups were explored after selecting this release checkpoint. Training all twelve Conformer blocks improved Italian development listener-vote cross-entropy to **2.404** but reached only **0.207** unanimous macro-F1, with sad **0/44** and fearful **1/17** correct; it was not promoted. A separate per-clip top-margin arm reached Italian CE **2.417** and F1 **0.211** but reduced the fixed CREMA-D screen macro-F1 **0.343 → 0.288**; it was rejected. The published weights are the earlier Stage-B checkpoint, not either follow-up.
|
| 61 |
+
|
| 62 |
+
## Reproducibility notes
|
| 63 |
+
|
| 64 |
+
The base revision, delta hashes, seed, and update count are pinned in [`release.json`](../release.json). The metric scopes above come from the frozen development, reserved-test, long-speech, and warm-serving runs. Audio and row-level private results are not redistributed here because the source datasets have their own terms. The public code exposes the choice-scoring path; the optimized HTTP endpoint used for timing remains experimental and is not represented as a production deployment.

# Aural One E2B Preview
|
| 18 |
+
|
| 19 |
+
**Native audio in, structured decisions out.** Aural One adapts Gemma 4 E2B to score supplied choices from a recording, a written state, and named questions. One model handles the audio and the decision; its inference path does not require speech-to-text or a separate sound classifier.
|
| 20 |
+
|
| 21 |
+
This **v0.1.0 research preview** publishes a frozen adapter and **54.3 million updated acoustic/projection weights**. The [pinned Gemma 4 E2B base](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-4-E2B-it) is downloaded separately. The language model was frozen during this final training stage.
|
| 22 |
+
|
| 23 |
+
## What we measured
|
| 24 |
+
|
| 25 |
+
| Evaluation | Aural One preview |
|
| 26 |
+
|---|---:|
|
| 27 |
+
| English CREMA-D actor-held-out development, macro-F1 | **0.391** on 445 clips |
|
| 28 |
+
| Bangla SUBESCO speaker-held-out development, macro-F1 | **0.295** on 700 clips, up from 0.134 reference |
|
| 29 |
+
| Bangla SUBESCO four-speaker reserved test, macro-F1 | **0.344** on 1,012 consensus clips |
|
| 30 |
+
| Structured choice / No-Null / ordinal development | **189 / 174 / 191** correct out of 200 each |
|
| 31 |
+
| Warm pod-local HTTP, ~58-second Opus with three questions | **0.508 s p50 / 0.579 s p95** |
|
| 32 |
+
|
| 33 |
+
These numbers have different test scopes. The full [evaluation report](EVALUATION.md) covers the frozen reference, listener-vote cross-entropy and calibration, same-words contrasts, sound events, Italian/German transfer, long audio, warm client latency, concurrency, and GPU-only cost. Aural One is an early release with room to improve rare emotions and natural sound transfer. The sub-second number above is measured **inside the warm GPU pod**; Tokyo end-to-end sub-second latency is still a research goal.
|
| 34 |
+
|
| 35 |
+
## Use the model
|
| 36 |
+
|
| 37 |
+
The public [GitHub repository](https://github.com/Parassharmaa/aural-one) contains the pinned loader and JSON example. Use Python 3.12 with an NVIDIA GPU; install a compatible PyTorch build first, then:
|
| 38 |
+
|
| 39 |
+
```bash
|
| 40 |
+
pip install git+https://github.com/Parassharmaa/aural-one.git
|
| 41 |
+
```
|
| 42 |
+
|
| 43 |
+
```python
|
| 44 |
+
from aural_one import load_aural_one
|
| 45 |
+
|
| 46 |
+
model = load_aural_one("blazeofchi/Aural-One-E2B")
|
| 47 |
+
result = model.score(
|
| 48 |
+
audio="/absolute/path/to/your-audio.wav",
|
| 49 |
+
state={"task": "listen to the voice"},
|
| 50 |
+
questions={
|
| 51 |
+
"emotion": {
|
| 52 |
+
"question": "Which emotion is most evident in the speaker's voice?",
|
| 53 |
+
"options": ["angry", "disgusted", "fearful", "happy", "neutral", "sad", "surprised"],
|
| 54 |
+
},
|
| 55 |
+
"baby_cry": {
|
| 56 |
+
"question": "Is a baby crying audible?",
|
| 57 |
+
"options": ["No", "Yes"],
|
| 58 |
+
},
|
| 59 |
+
},
|
| 60 |
+
)
|
| 61 |
+
print(result)
|
| 62 |
+
```
|
| 63 |
+
|
| 64 |
+
The preview scores **2–8 options** per named question. A binary or ordinal value is represented by its supplied options. Probabilities are normalized over those options and are **not calibrated confidence estimates**. The simple public loader scores questions separately; the warm HTTP timing above used an experimental shared-audio serving path. The reference loader passed short and synthetic 58-second smoke tests on a **24 GB Blackwell GPU partition**, with 9.8 GiB PyTorch allocation. A lower minimum has not been established.
|
| 65 |
+
|
| 66 |
+
## Model and data
|
| 67 |
+
|
| 68 |
+
The base revision is `3e22461f65e89153144f8adb70e3b8c2cc9845a7`. The acoustic delta SHA-256 is `ef80763236b2467a886d52fba51769de4dcfbdce909dd320803b6d2d2d41db96` and the adapter SHA-256 is `e2b53154b40cd67faf3c9a57226f09c187b060569a7894ee2b3630a4e88937c3`. [`release.json`](release.json) pins them for the loader.
|
| 69 |
+
|
| 70 |
+
The selected run used crowd-voted [CREMA-D](https://github.com/CheyneyComputerScience/CREMA-D) English acted speech, listener-voted [SUBESCO](https://zenodo.org/records/4526477) Bangla acted speech, and project typed-decision examples. Training kept the language model and prior adapter frozen while updating the last two audio Conformer blocks and the two audio projections. Details and source terms are in [TRAINING.md](TRAINING.md). No training or evaluation audio is uploaded here.
|
| 71 |
+
|
| 72 |
+
Code and Aural One weight deltas are Apache 2.0. The separately downloaded Gemma 4 E2B base is also Apache 2.0. Aural One is independent of TypeSafe AI and Jev.

# Training and data
|

|
| 3 |
+
Aural One E2B Preview uses [Gemma 4 E2B Instruct](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-4-E2B-it) at revision `3e22461f65e89153144f8adb70e3b8c2cc9845a7`. The release is a delta: a frozen prior adapter plus 54,294,272 updated weights in the final two audio Conformer blocks, audio output projection, and audio-to-language projection. The language model weights were frozen in this stage.
|
| 4 |
+
|
| 5 |
+
The selected run used seed `20260928`, **1,000 updates** with eight examples per update and a fixed audio/question schedule. Its 8,000 exposures comprised 3,200 CREMA-D perceived-emotion, 2,400 SUBESCO perceived-emotion, and 2,400 typed-decision examples. Half of the SUBESCO training updates included same-speaker, same-words recordings with different perceived emotion. Supervision combined listener-vote cross-entropy with a crossed audio/option margin (weight 0.25, margin 0.5). The run used BF16 forward weights, FP32 master AdamW, Conformer learning rate 2e-6, projection learning rate 5e-6, weight decay 0.01, and gradient norm clipping at 1.0.
