## Abstract (arXiv)

Recent advances in speech deepfake detection (SDD) have leveraged the Mixture of Experts (MoE) to enhance generalization capacity. However, existing gating networks often overlook the acoustic and temporal cues of deepfakes. In this work, we propose a novel domain-adaptive dual-gating MoE (DADGMoE) framework for SDD under unseen attack types and acoustic conditions. Our innovative dual-gating mechanism leverages Sinc-layer-based filters to process both low-level acoustic signals (raw waveforms) and high-level speech representations from a large self-supervised learning (SSL) model. It further incorporates domain prototypes to guide expert routing based on implicit deepfake patterns. The lightweight affine experts process the routed inputs. Experiments show that our DADGMoE significantly outperforms the baseline, achieving up to a 40.8% relative EER reduction on challenging out-of-dataset benchmarks. This framework demonstrates superior generalization capabilities and efficient design.
