Abstract: Robust signal enhancement under non-stationary and low SNR conditions remains challenging, as methods based on the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) with fixed resolution struggle to represent complex and time–frequency structures. While leveraging the fractional domain as an auxiliary view offers flexibility in modeling time-frequency structures, existing methods typically adopt fixed transform orders and overlook alignment between views, hindering effective integration of complementary representations and leaving frequency domain misalignment unresolved. Therefore, we propose FracFusion, a novel framework that integrates a learnable short-time fractional Fourier Transform (STFrFT) module to generate dynamic auxiliary views, combined with two stage alignment-aware fusion modules: Pearson Channel Fusion for correlation-guided consistency and Efficient Align Fusion for fine-grained, frequency aligned interaction. Experiments on speech and electromagnetic (EM) datasets show that FracFusion consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across diverse noise levels and signal types, demonstrating robust adaptability across domains.
