AzeroS: Extending LLM to Speech with Self-Generated Instruction-Free Tuning
Yiwen Shao, Wei Liu, Jiahong Li +4
Extending large language models (LLMs) to the speech domain has recently gained significant attention. A typical approach connects a pretrained LLM with an audio encoder through a…
Towards Effective and Efficient Non-autoregressive decoders for Conformer and LLM-based ASR using Block-based Attention Mask
Tianzi Wang, Xurong Xie, Zengrui Jin +9
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems often rely on autoregressive (AR) Transformer decoder architectures, which limit efficient inference parallelization due to their sequent…
Exploring Cross-Utterance Speech Contexts for Conformer-Transducer Speech Recognition Systems
Mingyu Cui, Mengzhe Geng, Jiajun Deng +8
This paper investigates four types of cross-utterance speech contexts modeling approaches for streaming and non-streaming Conformer-Transformer (C-T) ASR systems: i) input audio fe…
MiDashengLM: Efficient Audio Understanding with General Audio Captions
Heinrich Dinkel, Gang Li, Jizhong Liu +7
Current approaches for large audio language models (LALMs) often rely on closed data sources or proprietary models, limiting their generalization and accessibility. This paper intr…
MECAT: A Multi-Experts Constructed Benchmark for Fine-Grained Audio Understanding Tasks
Yadong Niu, Tianzi Wang, Heinrich Dinkel +7
While large audio-language models have advanced open-ended audio understanding, they still fall short of nuanced human-level comprehension. This gap persists largely because curren…
GLAP: General contrastive audio-text pretraining across domains and languages
Heinrich Dinkel, Zhiyong Yan, Tianzi Wang +7
Contrastive Language Audio Pretraining (CLAP) is a widely-used method to bridge the gap between audio and text domains. Current CLAP methods enable sound and music retrieval in Eng…
On-the-fly Routing for Zero-shot MoE Speaker Adaptation of Speech Foundation Models for Dysarthric Speech Recognition
Shujie HU, Xurong Xie, Mengzhe Geng +8
This paper proposes a novel MoE-based speaker adaptation framework for foundation models based dysarthric speech recognition. This approach enables zero-shot adaptation and real-ti…
Towards One-bit ASR: Extremely Low-bit Conformer Quantization Using Co-training and Stochastic Precision
Zhaoqing Li, Haoning Xu, Zengrui Jin +7
Model compression has become an emerging need as the sizes of modern speech systems rapidly increase. In this paper, we study model weight quantization, which directly reduces the…
Unfolding A Few Structures for The Many: Memory-Efficient Compression of Conformer and Speech Foundation Models
Zhaoqing Li, Haoning Xu, Xurong Xie +3
This paper presents a novel memory-efficient model compression approach for Conformer ASR and speech foundation systems. Our approach features a unique "small-to-large" design. A c…
