## Abstract (arXiv)

Pre-training methods have greatly improved the performance of sound event localization and detection (SELD). However, existing Transformer-based models still face high computational cost. To solve this problem, we present a stereo SELD system using a pre-trained PSELDnet and a bidirectional Mamba sequence model. Specifically, we replace the Conformer module with a BiMamba module. We also use asymmetric convolutions to better capture the time and frequency relationships in the audio signal. Test results on the DCASE2025 Task 3 development dataset show that our method performs better than both the baseline and the original PSELDnet with a Conformer decoder. In addition, the proposed model costs fewer computing resources than the baselines. These results show that the BiMamba architecture is effective for solving key challenges in SELD tasks.
