Improving Recursive Transformers with Mixture of LoRAs

Mohammadmahdi Nouriborji, Morteza Rohanian, Omid Rohanian

Parameter sharing in recursive transformers reduces model size but collapses layer-wise expressivity. We propose Mixture of LoRAs (MoL), a lightweight conditional-computation mecha…

Optimizing Speech Language Models for Acoustic Consistency

Morteza Rohanian, Michael Krauthammer

We study speech language models that incorporate semantic initialization and planning losses to achieve robust and consistent generation. Our approach initializes speech tokens wit…

Efficient Interleaved Speech Modeling through Knowledge Distillation

Mohammadmahdi Nouriborji, Morteza Rohanian

Current speech language models exceed the size and latency constraints of many deployment environments. We build compact, expressive speech generation models through layer-aligned…

Towards Scalable and Cross-Lingual Specialist Language Models for Oncology

Morteza Rohanian, Tarun Mehra, Nicola Miglino +3

Clinical oncology generates vast, unstructured data that often contain inconsistencies, missing information, and ambiguities, making it difficult to extract reliable insights for d…

Uncertainty Modeling in Multimodal Speech Analysis Across the Psychosis Spectrum

Morteza Rohanian, Roya M. Hüppi, Farhad Nooralahzadeh +8

Capturing subtle speech disruptions across the psychosis spectrum is challenging because of the inherent variability in speech patterns. This variability reflects individual differ…

Radiology-Aware Model-Based Evaluation Metric for Report Generation

Amos Calamida, Farhad Nooralahzadeh, Morteza Rohanian +3

We propose a new automated evaluation metric for machine-generated radiology reports using the successful COMET architecture adapted for the radiology domain. We train and publish…

Boosting Radiology Report Generation by Infusing Comparison Prior

Sanghwan Kim, Farhad Nooralahzadeh, Morteza Rohanian +5

Recent transformer-based models have made significant strides in generating radiology reports from chest X-ray images. However, a prominent challenge remains: these models often la…

Privacy-aware Early Detection of COVID-19 through Adversarial Training

Omid Rohanian, Samaneh Kouchaki, Andrew Soltan +4

Early detection of COVID-19 is an ongoing area of research that can help with triage, monitoring and general health assessment of potential patients and may reduce operational stra…

Alzheimer's Dementia Recognition Using Acoustic, Lexical, Disfluency and Speech Pause Features Robust to Noisy Inputs

Morteza Rohanian, Julian Hough, Matthew Purver

We present two multimodal fusion-based deep learning models that consume ASR transcribed speech and acoustic data simultaneously to classify whether a speaker in a structured diagn…

Multi-modal fusion with gating using audio, lexical and disfluency features for Alzheimer's Dementia recognition from spontaneous speech

Morteza Rohanian, Julian Hough, Matthew Purver

This paper is a submission to the Alzheimer's Dementia Recognition through Spontaneous Speech (ADReSS) challenge, which aims to develop methods that can assist in the automated pre…

Re-framing Incremental Deep Language Models for Dialogue Processing with Multi-task Learning

Morteza Rohanian, Julian Hough

We present a multi-task learning framework to enable the training of one universal incremental dialogue processing model with four tasks of disfluency detection, language modelling…
