BenchmarkAnything: Agent-Driven Construction of Simulator-Ready Microarchitecture Benchmarks
Xiangfeng Sun, Ceyu Xu, Chen Bai +1
The selection of benchmark workloads is of paramount importance in computer architecture, as it establishes the yardstick against which architectural innovations are measured and g…
Language-Statistical Analysis of Neural Audio Codec Tokens Across Architectures, Corpora, and Noise Conditions
Joonyong Park, Shinnosuke Takamichi, David M. Chan +3
Neural audio codecs (NACs) convert speech into discrete token sequences, and prior work has reported that these sequences follow language-like statistical laws. This paper analyzes…
Auditing Protocol-Level Shortcuts in Large Audio Language Model Judges for Speech Evaluation
Joonyong Park, David M. Chan, Yuki Saito +1
Large audio-language models (LALMs) are increasingly used as automatic judges for speech evaluation. However, high agreement with human ratings does not guarantee that their verdic…
CraBERT: Efficient Phoneme Encoder Pre-Training via Cascade Fusion of Subword Representations for Text-to-Speech
Dong Yang, Yuki Saito, Wataru Nakata +1
This paper introduces CraBERT, a pre-trained phoneme encoder (PPEnc) designed for efficient pre-training in text-to-speech (TTS). CraBERT employs a cascade-fusion architecture and…
Kinetic-Optimal Scheduling with Moment Correction for Metric-Induced Discrete Flow Matching in Zero-Shot Text-to-Speech
Dong Yang, Yiyi Cai, Haoyu Zhang +2
Metric-induced discrete flow matching (MI-DFM) exploits token-latent geometry for discrete generation, but its practical use is limited by two issues: heuristic schedulers requirin…
