Encoder-Side Neuron Identification and Amplification for Acoustic Perception in Large Audio-Language Models

Yu-Han Huang, Chih-Kai Yang, Ke-Han Lu +2

Large audio-language models (LALMs) often underperform on fine-grained, non-semantic attributes of speech, such as a speaker's emotion, despite strong performance on speech content…

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.…

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…

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…
