Hidden Decoding at Scale: Latent Computation Scaling for Large Language Models
Aiwei Liu, Cheng Shi, Chuhan Wu +44
Scaling Large Language Models (LLMs) has been driven mainly by enlarging the Transformer backbone, but for an already-strong model this requires another round of costly pretraining…
UniAudio-Token: Empowering Semantic Speech Tokenizers with General Audio Perception
Yuhan Song, Linhao Zhang, Aiwei Liu +6
Semantic speech tokenizers have become a widely used interface for Audio-LLMs, owing to their compact single-codebook design and strong linguistic alignment. However, their focus o…
Beyond Transcription: Unified Audio Schema for Perception-Aware AudioLLMs
Linhao Zhang, Yuhan Song, Aiwei Liu +6
Recent Audio Large Language Models (AudioLLMs) exhibit a striking performance inversion: while excelling at complex reasoning tasks, they consistently underperform on fine-grained…
StableToken: A Noise-Robust Semantic Speech Tokenizer for Resilient SpeechLLMs
Yuhan Song, Linhao Zhang, Chuhan Wu +4
Prevalent semantic speech tokenizers, designed to capture linguistic content, are surprisingly fragile. We find they are not robust to meaning-irrelevant acoustic perturbations; ev…
WildSpeech-Bench: Benchmarking End-to-End SpeechLLMs in the Wild
Linhao Zhang, Jian Zhang, Bokai Lei +4
Recent multi-modal Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT-4o have demonstrated strong capabilities of direct speech interaction. However, the lack of specialized and comprehensiv…
