LaSR: Context-Aware Speech Recognition via Latent Reasoning
Heyang Liu, Ziyang Cheng, Jiayi Huang +5
Recent advances in Speech Large Language Models (Speech LLMs) have significantly enhanced spoken language understanding and reasoning. However, their contextual awareness is limite…
VocalNet-MDM: Accelerating Streaming Speech LLM via Self-Distilled Masked Diffusion Modeling
Ziyang Cheng, Yuhao Wang, Heyang Liu +4
Recent Speech Large Language Models~(LLMs) have achieved impressive capabilities in end-to-end speech interaction. However, the prevailing autoregressive paradigm imposes strict se…
VocalBench: Benchmarking the Vocal Conversational Abilities for Speech Interaction Models
Heyang Liu, Yuhao Wang, Ziyang Cheng +7
Speech large language models (SpeechLLMs) have extended human-machine interactions from the text modality to the dynamic speech domain. Spoken dialogues convey diverse information,…
VocalBench-zh: Decomposing and Benchmarking the Speech Conversational Abilities in Mandarin Context
Heyang Liu, Ziyang Cheng, Yuhao Wang +6
The development of multi-modal large language models (LLMs) leads to intelligent approaches capable of speech interactions. As one of the most widely spoken languages globally, Man…
VocalNet-M2: Advancing Low-Latency Spoken Language Modeling via Integrated Multi-Codebook Tokenization and Multi-Token Prediction
Yuhao Wang, Ziyang Cheng, Heyang Liu +4
Current end-to-end spoken language models (SLMs) have made notable progress, yet they still encounter considerable response latency. This delay primarily arises from the autoregres…
VocalBench-DF: A Benchmark for Evaluating Speech LLM Robustness to Disfluency
Hongcheng Liu, Yixuan Hou, Heyang Liu +3
While Speech Large Language Models (Speech-LLMs) show strong performance in many applications, their robustness is critically under-tested, especially to speech disfluency. Existin…
