Bridging What the Model Thinks and How It Speaks: Expressive Speech Generation via Self-Aware Intent-Realization Alignment
Kuang Wang, Lai Wei, Ping Lin +8
Speech Language Models (SLMs) exhibit strong semantic understanding, yet often fail to translate this capacity into expressive acoustic realization, producing speech with flattened…
The Master Key Hypothesis: Unlocking Cross-Model Capability Transfer via Linear Subspace Alignment
Rishab Balasubramanian, Pin-Jie Lin, Rituraj Sharma +6
We investigate whether post-trained capabilities can be transferred across models without retraining, with a focus on transfer across different model scales. We propose the Master…
Efficient Model Development through Fine-tuning Transfer
Pin-Jie Lin, Rishab Balasubramanian, Fengyuan Liu +2
Modern LLMs struggle with efficient updates, as each new pretrained model version requires repeating expensive alignment processes. This challenge also applies to domain- or langua…
Self-Vocabularizing Training for Neural Machine Translation
Pin-Jie Lin, Ernie Chang, Yangyang Shi +1
Past vocabulary learning techniques identify relevant vocabulary before training, relying on statistical and entropy-based assumptions that largely neglect the role of model traini…
