arXiv:2610.09189v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose SwinDS-BWE, a decision-science-inspired bandwidth extension (BWE) model with two coupled contributions: (1) Swin Transformers with lattice-style cross-stream interaction yield locality-aware modeling with linear-in-sequence per-window attention cost and reduce the prior AP-BWE generator size 0.5x from 33M to 17M. (2) Three novel lightweight decision-science-inspired discriminators augment AP-BWE's performance: a CVaR discriminator tail-pools activations to emphasize worst high-frequency (HF) segments, a Chance-Constraint HF discriminator penalizes excessive HF energy via a differentiable barrier, and a Multi-Criteria Utility discriminator learns convex style weights over spectral criteria. SwinDS-BWE surpasses prior AP-BWE with a 30x smaller discriminator (42.3M vs. 1.36M) and higher fidelity on English and French datasets. This work shows that decision-science-inspired critics can supervise BWE to reduce discriminator size.
