AV-SpeakerBench is a new speaker-centered benchmark showing that top multimodal models still struggle with fine-grained audiovisual speech understanding, with Gemini 2.5 Pro leading but open models lagging on fusion.
TSVer is a new benchmark dataset for fact verification against time-series evidence, with 304 annotated real-world claims, 400 time series, verdicts, and justifications, plus baseline results showing current models struggle.
S2ST-Omni 2 uses typology-informed hierarchical encoding, gated Dual-CTC, and typology-aware prompting to improve multilingual S2ST over flat-label baselines on CVSS-C, with gains in low-data regimes.
ViLL-E introduces a dynamic embedding mechanism and joint contrastive-generative training for VideoLLMs, delivering up to 7% gains in temporal localization and 4% in video retrieval while enabling new zero-shot capabilities.
NeuralSBS reaches 73.7% accuracy on side-by-side TTS comparisons and enhanced MOS models reach RMSE 0.40, beating the human inter-rater baseline of 0.62.
Q2D2 uses 2D geometric grid projections to quantize feature pairs in neural audio codecs, yielding implicit codebooks that improve efficiency and utilization over RVQ, VQ, and FSQ while maintaining reconstruction quality.
MCAT scales MLLMs to many-to-many speech translation across 70 languages via curriculum learning and a 30-token speech adapter, surpassing prior SOTA on FLEURS while improving speed.
Step-Audio 2 integrates a latent audio encoder, reasoning-centric reinforcement learning, and discrete audio token generation into language modeling to deliver state-of-the-art performance on audio understanding and conversational benchmarks.
GLM-4-Voice builds an end-to-end spoken chatbot by deriving a 175bps single-codebook tokenizer from ASR, synthesizing interleaved speech-text data, and continuing pre-training of GLM-4-9B on up to 1 trillion tokens before fine-tuning on conversational speech.
Qwen-Audio trains a unified model on diverse audio and tasks with hierarchical tags to enable strong zero-shot performance on audio understanding benchmarks and multi-turn audio chat.
SALMONN integrates speech and audio encoders with a text-based LLM to process general audio inputs, achieve competitive results on trained tasks, and exhibit emergent cross-modal abilities.
InterRS enables real-time speech generation with interleaved reasoning via a controlled data pipeline, interleaved SFT, and RL using TA-Balance and Linguistic Quality rewards, yielding 13% gains on math and logic benchmarks.
GST uses gradient-based affinity metrics to form dataset groups and applies progressive scheduling, achieving 30-40% faster convergence than uniform mixture training on 14 AudioQA datasets while matching or exceeding performance.
Reinforced Behavior Alignment (RBA) uses self-synthesized data from a teacher LLM and reinforcement learning to close the instruction-following gap in SpeechLMs, outperforming distillation and reaching SOTA on spoken QA and speech-to-text translation benchmarks.
Tight integration of acoustic models with LLMs for ASR is ablated against shallow fusion across label units, fine-tuning strategies, LLM sizes, and joint CTC decoding to mitigate hallucinations.
VITA-1.5 integrates vision and speech into a single LLM through multi-stage training, delivering competitive benchmark results on image, video, and speech tasks with near real-time response speed.
Qwen2-Audio is an open-source audio-language model that outperforms prior systems such as Gemini-1.5-pro on audio-centric instruction-following benchmarks after simplified prompt-based pre-training and expanded data.
This survey organizes the architectures, training strategies, data, evaluation methods, extensions, and challenges of Multimodal Large Language Models.
The paper provides the first comprehensive survey of multimodal chain-of-thought reasoning, including foundational concepts, a taxonomy of methodologies, application analyses, challenges, and future directions.
