DuplexSLA introduces a three-channel full-duplex architecture that synchronizes continuous user audio, discrete assistant audio, and rate-limited textual actions inside a single backbone for native turn-taking and in-conversation tool use.
Moshi is the first real-time full-duplex spoken large language model that casts dialogue as speech-to-speech generation using parallel audio streams and an inner monologue of time-aligned text tokens.
TRADE augments multimodal Speech LLMs with a transducer branch for streaming ASR, reporting 6.71% WER offline and 8.40% streaming on the Open ASR Leaderboard from one checkpoint.
LATTE creates a compact latent token bottleneck in audio tokenizers that aggregates global information and enables unsupervised editing of attributes like speaker identity via token swapping.
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.
Step-Audio introduces a 130B-parameter unified speech-text model with open-sourced components for understanding, generation, affordable voice cloning, and dynamic control, claiming SOTA human evaluation results on a new benchmark.
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.
MoT decouples non-embedding parameters by modality in transformers to match dense multi-modal performance with roughly one-third to one-half the FLOPs.
TextPro-SLM reduces the speech-text modality gap by feeding an LLM backbone with synchronized text tokens and prosody embeddings from WhisperPro, achieving lowest gap scores at 3B/7B scales with roughly 1,000 hours of audio.
