Instruct-FD: Can Your Full-Duplex Speech System Follow Turn-Taking Instructions?
Yuzhi Tang, Wentao Ma, Xiling Zhao +17
Current full-duplex (FD) spoken dialogue systems can produce fluid interactions, yet it remains unclear whether they can adapt their turn-taking behavior when explicitly instructed…
IHBench: Evaluating Post-Interruption Recovery in Voice Agents with Structured Workflows
Ahmad Salimi, Wentao Ma, Yuzhi Tang +3
Voice agents deployed in structured workflows (customer service, healthcare scheduling, account management) must handle frequent user interruptions while maintaining progress throu…
ProactBench: Beyond What The User Asked For
Sepehr Harfi, Ahmad Salimi, Dongming Shen +1
Most LLM benchmarks score how well a model responds to explicit requests. They leave unmeasured a different conversational ability: noticing and acting on needs the user has implie…
Geometry-Aware Diffusion Models for Multiview Scene Inpainting
Ahmad Salimi, Tristan Aumentado-Armstrong, Marcus A. Brubaker +1
In this paper, we focus on 3D scene inpainting, where parts of an input image set, captured from different viewpoints, are masked out. The main challenge lies in generating plausib…
LAP: An Attention-Based Module for Concept Based Self-Interpretation and Knowledge Injection in Convolutional Neural Networks
Rassa Ghavami Modegh, Ahmad Salimi, Alireza Dizaji +1
Despite the state-of-the-art performance of deep convolutional neural networks, they are susceptible to bias and malfunction in unseen situations. Moreover, the complex computation…
