Adaptive Mixture of Low-Rank Experts for Robust Audio Spoofing Detection

In audio spoofing detection, most studies rely on clean datasets, making models susceptible to real-world post-processing attacks, such as channel compression and noise. To overcome this challenge, we propose the Adaptive MixtUre Low-rank ExperTs (AMULET) framework, which enhances resilience by leveraging attack-specific knowledge and dynamically adapting to varied attack conditions. Specifically, AMULET employs Attack-Specific Experts (ASEs) fine-tuned with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), allowing each expert to focus on distinct post-processing patterns using just 1.13% of the parameters required for full fine-tuning. Furthermore, we introduce Adaptive Expert Fusion (AEF), which adaptively selects and integrates expert knowledge to enhance the robustness of spoofing detection. Experimental results demonstrate that AMULET significantly enhances robustness by improving noise resilience and exhibiting greater adaptability to unseen post-processing methods compared to models trained with full fine-tuning. Additionally, our framework outperforms both single expert and other expert aggregation strategies under various mixed attacks, demonstrating its superior robustness and adaptability in managing complex real-world scenarios. Both our data processing pipeline and model will be released at <uri xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">https://github.com/foolishcqx/AMULET-AudioSpoof</uri>.
