AffectCodec is an emotion-guided neural speech codec that preserves emotional cues during quantization while maintaining semantic fidelity and prosodic naturalness.
MINT-Bench is a new benchmark using hierarchical taxonomy, multi-stage data pipeline, and hybrid evaluation to assess instruction-following TTS systems, revealing major gaps in compositional and paralinguistic controls.
MSpoof-TTS improves zero-shot discrete speech synthesis by integrating multi-resolution token-based spoof detection into a hierarchical decoding process that prunes low-quality candidates.
JUST-DUB-IT adapts a joint audio-visual diffusion model via LoRA to generate high-quality dubbed videos with translated audio and lip-synced facial motion.
SemaVoice adds SFM-guided alignment to refine continuous speech representations in autoregressive TTS, reporting 1.71% English WER on Seed-TTS and competitiveness with open-source SOTA.
Break-the-Beat! renders drum MIDI audio that matches the timbre of a reference clip by fine-tuning a text-to-audio model with a content encoder and hybrid conditioning on a new paired dataset.
L3-SE reduces linguistic hallucination in LM-based speech enhancement by distilling noise-invariant acoustic-semantic representations from noisy inputs to condition an autoregressive decoder-only language model.
RTCFake is the first large-scale dataset of real-time communication speech deepfakes paired with offline versions, paired with a phoneme-guided consistency learning method that improves cross-platform and noise-robust detection.
OmniVoice introduces a diffusion language model-style non-autoregressive TTS system that directly maps text to multi-codebook acoustic tokens, scaling zero-shot synthesis to over 600 languages with SOTA results on multilingual benchmarks using 581k hours of open data.
Qwen3-TTS delivers state-of-the-art multilingual TTS performance with 3-second voice cloning, description control, and ultra-low-latency streaming via dual tokenizers and a dual-track LM architecture trained on over 5 million hours of data.
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.
Raon-OpenTTS provides an open 510K-hour curated speech dataset and DiT-based TTS models up to 1B parameters that achieve competitive WER and speaker similarity on benchmarks versus closed models trained on millions of hours.
JaiTTS-v1.0 achieves 1.94% CER on short Thai speech, beating human ground truth of 1.98%, matches humans on long speech, and wins 283 of 400 human comparisons against commercial systems.
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.
Kimi-Audio is an open-source audio foundation model that achieves state-of-the-art results on speech recognition, audio understanding, question answering, and conversation after pre-training on more than 13 million hours of speech, sound, and music data.
TRACE improves activity recognition accuracy and temporal coherence in smart homes by integrating multi-source sensor evidence with contextual priors.
AT-ADD introduces standardized tracks and datasets for evaluating audio deepfake detectors on speech under real-world conditions and on diverse unknown audio types to promote generalization beyond speech-centric methods.
