VITA-QinYu is the first expressive end-to-end spoken language model supporting role-playing and singing alongside conversation, trained on 15.8K hours of data and outperforming prior models on expressiveness and conversational benchmarks.
LAT-Audio introduces a global-to-local reasoning approach with TWA-CoT that outperforms prior models on temporal tasks for audio up to 30 minutes.
SpeechParaling-Bench is a new evaluation framework for paralinguistic-aware speech generation that reveals major limitations in current large audio-language models.
CapTalk unifies single-utterance and dialogue voice design via utterance- and speaker-level captions plus a hierarchical variational module for stable timbre with adaptive expression.
Speaker-Reasoner is an end-to-end speech LLM that iteratively analyzes audio structure, predicts temporal boundaries, and jointly models speaker identity, gender, timestamps, and transcription using a speaker-aware cache for long audio.
TiCo enables spoken dialogue models to follow explicit time constraints in generated responses using Spoken Time Markers and reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards, cutting duration error by 2.7x over its backbone.
AIA generates universal interference audio infused with Acoustic Latent Semantics to bypass LALM safety alignment, achieving SOTA attack success rates on 10 models across five datasets.
A data pipeline, 14-dimension benchmark, and decoupled fine-tuning model are presented to advance fine-grained multi-dimensional speech understanding in LLMs.
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.
TTS-PRISM defines a 12-dimensional perceptual schema, builds a targeted diagnostic dataset via adversarial synthesis and expert labels, and tunes an end-to-end model that outperforms generalist LLMs in human alignment on a 1,600-sample Mandarin test set while profiling six TTS paradigms.
A survey of Large Audio Language Models that establishes a taxonomy of trustworthiness vulnerabilities and proposes a Defense-in-Depth roadmap for audio intelligence.
Qwen3.5-Omni scales an omnimodal model to hundreds of billions of parameters with 256k context, introduces ARIA for stable speech synthesis, and reports SOTA performance on 215 audio-visual benchmarks while adding multilingual and audio-visual coding capabilities.
Audio-Cogito is an open-source LALM using Cogito-pipe data curation and self-distillation to achieve leading open-source performance on audio reasoning benchmarks.
Step-Audio-R1.5 applies RLHF to audio reasoning models to maintain analytical performance while improving prosodic naturalness and immersion in extended spoken interactions.
