+## [3.5.0] - 2026-05-26
+
+### Added
+- **Deep-lattice TFLite speech quality mapper** (`pip install visqol-python[lattice]`):
+  - `TFLiteSpeechQualityMapper` loads the same `.tflite` lattice network used by
+    C++ ViSQOL's default `--use_lattice_model=true` and runs inference through
+    the upstream Google TFLite C++ runtime via `ai-edge-litert`
+  - New `use_lattice_model` parameter on `VisqolApi.create()` (default `None`
+    auto-enables lattice when the runtime is installed)
+  - New `lattice_model_path` parameter to override the bundled model
+  - New CLI flags `--no_lattice_model` and `--lattice_model PATH`
+- New `[lattice]` and `[all]` extras in `pyproject.toml`
+- Bundled `lattice_*.tflite` (2.1 MB) into the wheel as package data
+
+### Fixed
+- **GH issue #1**: Speech-mode MOS scores were systematically 1–2 points higher
+  than C++ ViSQOL's default. Root cause: the Python port only implemented the
+  legacy polynomial mapper (`SpeechSimilarityToQualityMapper`, equivalent to
+  C++ `--use_lattice_model=false`), while the C++ default routes through the
+  TFLite lattice network. Installing `visqol-python[lattice]` now matches C++
+  default scoring (CA01 conformance: diff 0.027 vs 1–2 MOS before).
+- **`signal_utils.normalize()` parity bug**: the previous implementation did
+  min–max scaling to ``[0, 1]`` (shifting the signal positive and adding a DC
+  offset), while C++ ``MiscMath::Normalize`` only divides by the peak. This
+  inflated the RMS values fed to the speech-mode VAD, causing Python to keep
+  every patch as voice-active and adding spurious patches the C++ binary
+  would have discarded. Fixing this brought polynomial speech parity from
+  diff 0.007 → 0.001 and was a prerequisite for lattice parity. Only the
+  speech-mode VAD path used this function; audio mode is unaffected.
+- **`nsim` stddev estimator mismatch**: both ``nsim.measure_patch_similarity``
+  (``np.std(..., ddof=0)``) and the Numba ``_measure_patch_similarity_numba``
+  kernel (``sqrt(ss / cols)``) used the population estimator (divide by N).
+  C++ uses Armadillo's ``stddev(..., 0)`` which is the *unbiased* sample
+  estimator (divide by N-1, despite the misleading ``0`` flag). The
+  per-band ``freq_band_stddevs`` was therefore systematically smaller by
+  ``sqrt((N-1)/N) ≈ 0.974``, which fed into the pooled ``fstdnsim`` and
+  perturbed every lattice prediction.
+- **`numba_accel.fastmath=True` on the Gammatone spectrogram kernel**: the
+  compounded LLVM-level FP reassociation across the 4-stage cascaded IIR ×
+  thousands of samples × hundreds of frames pushed lattice MOS off by
+  another ~0.02 vs strict IEEE-754. ``fastmath`` has been removed from the
+  spectrogram kernel; ``parallel=True`` is kept (each frame's IIR state is
+  independent so the reduction is safe).
+
+### Speech-mode parity numbers (CA01 conformance)
+
+| Mode | Before all fixes | After all fixes | C++ baseline |
+|------|------------------|-----------------|--------------|
+| Polynomial | diff 0.0067 | **diff 0.0011** | 3.3745 |
+| Lattice | diff 0.0856 (≈1–2 MOS on Nils's TCD-VOIP samples) | **diff 0.0023** | 3.3130 |
+
+### Changed
+- Speech mode `create(mode="speech")` now auto-uses lattice when available; when
+  `ai-edge-litert` is missing, it logs a one-time warning and falls back to
+  polynomial (existing scores reproduce exactly).
+- `tests/test_conformance.py` split the single speech case into
+  `test_speech_polynomial_conformance` (existing C++ polynomial baseline 3.3745)
+  and `test_speech_lattice_conformance` (regression baseline captured from this
+  implementation).
+- README: documented the polynomial-vs-lattice distinction, new install matrix,
+  and parity caveats.
