Encoder-Side Neuron Identification and Amplification for Acoustic Perception in Large Audio-Language Models
Yu-Han Huang, Chih-Kai Yang, Ke-Han Lu +2
The paper proposes IAAN, a training‑free method that identifies and amplifies specific neurons inside the audio encoder of large audio‑language models to improve recognition of fin…
MUGEN: Evaluating and Improving Multi-audio Understanding of Large Audio-Language Models
Chih-Kai Yang, Yun-Shao Tsai, Yu-Kai Guo +7
While multi-audio understanding is critical for large audio-language models (LALMs), it remains underexplored. We introduce MUGEN, a comprehensive benchmark evaluating this capabil…
All That Glitters Is Not Audio: Rethinking Text Priors and Audio Reliance in Audio-Language Evaluation
Leonardo Haw-Yang Foo, Chih-Kai Yang, Chen-An Li +2
Large Audio-Language Models show consistent performance gains across speech and audio benchmarks, yet high scores may not reflect true auditory perception. If a model can answer qu…
Nudging Hidden States: Training-Free Model Steering for Chain-of-Thought Reasoning in Large Audio-Language Models
Lok-Lam Ieong, Chia-Chien Chen, Chih-Kai Yang +3
Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting has been extended to large audio-language models (LALMs) to elicit reasoning, yet enhancing its effectiveness without training remains challenging.…
SAKE: Towards Editing Auditory Attribute Knowledge of Large Audio-Language Models
Chih-Kai Yang, Yen-Ting Piao, Tzu-Wen Hsu +8
Knowledge editing enables targeted updates without retraining, but prior work focuses on textual or visual facts, leaving abstract auditory perceptual knowledge underexplored. We i…
Investigating Safety Vulnerabilities of Large Audio-Language Models Under Speaker Emotional Variations
Bo-Han Feng, Chien-Feng Liu, Yu-Hsuan Li Liang +9
Large audio-language models (LALMs) extend text-based LLMs with auditory understanding, offering new opportunities for multimodal applications. While their perception, reasoning, a…
