RESUMO
Audio moment retrieval (AMR) identifies temporal segments in long recordings that best match a free-form text query. Existing systems largely rely on fixed-slot DETR decoders that assign proposal-level confidence scores without explicitly normalizing over competing explanations of the full timeline. We propose segmental posterior decoding, which defines a globally normalized distribution over temporal segmentations and scores each candidate moment by its exact segment marginal posterior computed through forward-backward inference. We further expand the training segmentation space by treating a foreground span and its adjacent subdivisions as distinct hypotheses, thereby increasing competition among alternative segmentations. On CASTELLA, our method achieves 41.15% R1@0.7 and 34.68% mAP, outperforming the same network decoded with DETR slot confidence by 10.91 and 9.20 percentage points, respectively.
