The Silent Thought: Modeling Internal Cognition in Full-Duplex Spoken Dialogue Models via Latent Reasoning

Donghang Wu, Tianyu Zhang, Yuxin Li +4

During conversational interactions, humans subconsciously engage in concurrent thinking while listening to a speaker. Although this internal cognitive processing may not always man…

Mind-Paced Speaking: A Dual-Brain Approach to Real-Time Reasoning in Spoken Language Models

Donghang Wu, Haoyang Zhang, Jun Chen +9

Real-time Spoken Language Models (SLMs) struggle to leverage Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning due to the prohibitive latency of generating the entire thought process sequentially.…
