Multimodal Unlearning Across Vision, Language, Video, and Audio: Survey of Methods, Datasets, and Benchmarks
Nobin Sarwar, Shubhashis Roy Dipta, Zheyuan Liu +1
With the growing adoption of VLMs, DMs, LLMs, and AFMs, these multimodal foundation models can inadvertently encode sensitive, copyrighted, biased, or unsafe cross-modal associatio…
TaigiSpeech: A Low-Resource Real-World Speech Intent Dataset and Preliminary Results with Scalable Data Mining In-the-Wild
Kai-Wei Chang, Yi-Cheng Lin, Huang-Cheng Chou +9
Speech technologies have advanced rapidly and serve diverse populations worldwide. However, many languages remain underrepresented due to limited resources. In this paper, we intro…
Overcoming State Inertia in Full-Duplex Spoken Language Models via Activation Steering
Cheng-Kuang Chang, Kai-Wei Chang, Alexander H. Liu +1
Full-duplex spoken language models (FD-SLMs) enable seamless speech interaction by allowing models to listen and speak simultaneously, yet the internal mechanism by which they coor…
RRP-Voice: A Longitudinal Dataset and Benchmark for Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Detection
Wenze Ren, Ke-Han Lu, Kai-Wei Chang +8
Deep learning has advanced pathological voice detection rapidly, yet rare laryngeal diseases remain underexplored due to data scarcity. Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) e…
On the Fallacy of Global Token Perplexity in Spoken Language Model Evaluation
Chan-Jan Hsu, Liang-Hsuan Tseng, Yi-Cheng Lin +5
Generative spoken language models pretrained on large-scale raw audio can continue a speech prompt with appropriate content while preserving attributes like speaker and emotion, se…
TiCo: Time-Controllable Spoken Dialogue Model
Kai-Wei Chang, Wei-Chih Chen, En-Pei Hu +2
We introduce TiCo, a time-controllable spoken dialogue model (SDM) that follows time-constrained instructions (e.g., "Please generate a response lasting about 15 seconds") and gene…
