Listen, Reason, and Segment: Aligning LALMs with Editorial Judgment for Media Chapterization
Tony Alex, Wish Suharitdamrong, Sara Atito +5
Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) have made rapid progress on standardized benchmarks, yet their deployment in practical media workflows, curation, archival indexing, and content…
Hierarchical Activity Recognition and Captioning from Long-Form Audio
Peng Zhang, Qingyu Luo, Philip J. B. Jackson +1
Complex activities in real-world audio unfold over extended durations and exhibit hierarchical structure, yet most prior work focuses on short clips and isolated events. To bridge…
PAL: Probing Audio Encoders via LLMs -- Audio Information Transfer into LLMs
Tony Alex, Wish Suharitdamrong, Sara Atito +4
Integration of audio perception into large language models (LLMs) is an emerging research area for enabling machine listening applications, yet efficient transfer of rich audio sem…
SSLAM: Enhancing Self-Supervised Models with Audio Mixtures for Polyphonic Soundscapes
Tony Alex, Sara Ahmed, Armin Mustafa +2
Self-supervised pre-trained audio networks have seen widespread adoption in real-world systems, particularly in multi-modal large language models. These networks are often employed…
