contents This paper proposes a Spatially-Augmented Sequence-to-Sequence Neural Diarization (SA-S2SND) framework, which integrates direction-of-arrival (DOA) cues estimated by SRP-DNN into the S2SND backbone. A two-stage training strategy is adopted: the model is first trained with single-channel audio and DOA features, and then further optimized with multi-channel inputs under DOA guidance. In addition, a simulated DOA generation scheme is introduced to alleviate dependence on matched multi-channel corpora. On the AliMeeting dataset, SA-S2SND consistently outperform the S2SND baseline, achieving a 7.4% relative DER reduction in the offline mode and over 19% improvement when combined with channel attention. These results demonstrate that spatial cues are highly complementary to cross-channel modeling, yielding good performance in both online and offline settings.
