Omni Demand Understanding: A Benchmark for Contextual User-Intent Inference in Multimodal Interaction
Qi Chen, Yunfei Chu, Haolin He +15
Natural audio-visual interaction is emerging as an important interface for AI assistants, allowing users to communicate through speech and vision rather than carefully composed tex…
GROW: Group-Relative Advantage-Weighted On-Policy Reinforcement Learning of Autoregressive-Diffusion Text-to-Speech model
Guanrou Yang, Tian Tan, Qian Chen +8
Reinforcement learning for flow-matching text-to-speech is complicated by deterministic ODE sampling: trajectory-level policy-gradient methods typically convert the ODE into an SDE…
MMAE: A Massive Multitask Audio Editing Benchmark
Ziyang Ma, Ruiqi Yan, Ruiyang Xu +35
We introduce MMAE, a Massive Multitask Audio Editing benchmark, serving as the first comprehensive evaluation testbed designed for general-purpose instruction-based audio editing.…
WavTTS: Towards High-Quality Zero-Shot TTS via Direct Raw Waveform Modeling
Wenxi Chen, Dongya Jia, Yushen Chen +11
Recently, diffusion models operating on VAE latents or mel-spectrograms have become the dominant paradigm for zero-shot TTS. Although these compressed representations improve gener…
Evaluating the Expressive Appropriateness of Speech in Rich Contexts
Tianrui Wang, Ziyang Ma, Yizhou Peng +26
Evaluating expressive speech remains challenging, as existing methods mainly assess emotional intensity and overlook whether a speech sample is expressively appropriate for its con…
WavCube: Unifying Speech Representation for Understanding and Generation via Semantic-Acoustic Joint Modeling
Guanrou Yang, Tian Tan, Qian Chen +12
Integrating speech understanding and generation is a pivotal step toward building unified speech models. However, the different representations required for these two tasks current…
SemanticVocoder: Bridging Audio Generation and Audio Understanding via Semantic Latents
Zeyu Xie, Chenxing Li, Qiao Jin +6
Recent audio generation models typically rely on Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) and perform generation within the VAE latent space. Although VAEs excel at compression and reconstr…
SLAM-LLM: A Modular, Open-Source Multimodal Large Language Model Framework and Best Practice for Speech, Language, Audio and Music Processing
Ziyang Ma, Guanrou Yang, Wenxi Chen +19
The recent surge in open-source Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLM) frameworks, such as LLaVA, provides a convenient kickoff for artificial intelligence developers and research…
Towards Fine-Grained and Multi-Granular Contrastive Language-Speech Pre-training
Yifan Yang, Bing Han, Hui Wang +8
Modeling fine-grained speaking styles remains challenging for language-speech representation pre-training, as existing speech-text models are typically trained with coarse captions…
