Measuring the Verifier's Floor: How Much Apparent Rare-Word Text-to-Speech Error Is ASR Error?
Kirill Borodin, Vasilii Kudryavtsev, Nikita Vasiliev +1
Text-to-speech (TTS) is usually evaluated by transcribing its output with an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, so the word error rate also counts recognizer errors. We mea…
Text-Only LLM Correctors Break Correct Transcripts: A Repair-Damage Analysis of Audio Grounding in ASR Error Correction
Vasiliy Kudryavtsev, Kirill Borodin, Nikita Vasiliev +2
LLM correctors of ASR output are judged by aggregate WER, which hides what they fix and what they break. We decompose every WER change exactly into repaired tokens, damaged tokens…
Balalaika-Longform: A Russian Speech Corpus for Continuous Long-Form Text-to-Speech
Nikita Vasiliev, Kirill Borodin, Vasilii Kudryavtsev +2
Long-form text-to-speech must retain requested words over extended generations, yet sentence-level training and evaluation can hide omissions and early stops. We introduce Balalaik…
ProxyMOS: Label-Free Speech Quality Assessment by Multi-Teacher Distillation with Adaptive Routing
Maxim Trokunov, Kirill Borodin, Nikita Vasiliev +1
Human mean opinion scores (MOS) are costly to collect, and non-intrusive MOS predictors degrade sharply outside their training domain. ProxyMOS turns a pool of public MOS predictor…
RAWD-TTS: Ratio-Free Reward Alignment for Discrete-Diffusion Voice Cloning
Maxim Maslov, Kirill Borodin, Vasilii Kudryavtsev +2
Zero-shot text-to-speech synthesizes new utterances in a speaker's voice from a short reference recording. Voice cloning requires accurate content and preserved speaker identity, b…
Combining Masked Language Modeling and Cross-Modal Contrastive Learning for Prosody-Aware TTS
Kirill Borodin, Vasiliy Kudryavtsev, Maxim Maslov +3
Text encoders in neural text-to-speech (TTS) see only linguistic content, so prosody must be inferred from paired data and synthesised intonation is often flat. Contrastive text-au…
Benchmarking Compact VLMs for Clip-Level Surveillance Anomaly Detection Under Weak Supervision
Kirill Borodin, Kirill Kondrashov, Nikita Vasiliev +4
CCTV safety monitoring demands anomaly detectors combine reliable clip-level accuracy with predictable per-clip latency despite weak supervision. This work investigates compact vis…
Balalaika: Data-Centric, Prosody-Aware Annotation Pipeline for Russian Speech
Kirill Borodin, Nikita Vasiliev, Vasiliy Kudryavtsev +3
We introduce Balalaika, an open-source, data-centric pipeline for processing audio and producing prosody-aware annotations. It combines semantic VAD for context-preserving segmenta…
