FoleyGenEx: Unified Video-to-Audio Generation with Multi-Modal Control, Temporal Alignment, and Semantic Precision
Shiyao Wang, Xijuan Zeng, Hui Wang +4
We present FoleyGenEx, a unified video-to-audio (VTA) framework integrating multi-modal control, frame-level temporal alignment, and fine-grained semantics, enabling synchronized,…
SpeechLLM-as-Judges: Towards General and Interpretable Speech Quality Evaluation
Hui Wang, Jinghua Zhao, Yifan Yang +9
Generative speech technologies are progressing rapidly, but evaluating the perceptual quality of synthetic speech remains a core challenge. Existing methods typically rely on scala…
GLAD: Global-Local Aware Dynamic Mixture-of-Experts for Multi-Talker ASR
Yujie Guo, Jiaming Zhou, Yuhang Jia +2
End-to-end multi-talker automatic speech recognition (MTASR) faces significant challenges in accurately transcribing overlapping speech. A critical bottleneck is that speaker-speci…
Speech-XL: Towards Long-Form Speech Understanding in Large Speech Language Models
Haoqin Sun, Chenyang Lyu, Shiwan Zhao +5
Despite the growing success of Large Speech Language Models (LSLMs) in processing short-term acoustic signals, their extension to long-form audio understanding is severely bottlene…
DIFFA-2: A Practical Diffusion Large Language Model for General Audio Understanding
Jiaming Zhou, Xuxin Cheng, Shiwan Zhao +5
Autoregressive (AR) large audio language models (LALMs) such as Qwen-2.5-Omni have achieved strong performance on audio understanding and interaction, but scaling them remains cost…
DIFFA: Large Language Diffusion Models Can Listen and Understand
Jiaming Zhou, Hongjie Chen, Shiwan Zhao +9
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities across textual and multimodal domains. In parallel, diffusion-based language models have emerged…
