Omnimodal language models (OLMs) enable unified audio-visual understanding, but processing long joint token sequences makes inference computationally prohibitive. While recent token compression methods attempt to alleviate this burden, compressing modalities in isolation often destroys the temporal cross-modal anchors necessary for coherent reasoning.

The paper introduces Omni-Interactive Universal Embedder (OmniUE), a unified embedding framework that learns a single representation space for text, video, and audio using learnable tokens and intermediate-layer representations. OmniUE supports omni-interactive querying, allowing users to input text, visual regions, or audio spans, which are processed by segmenters and an omni-LLM to generate user-conditioned embeddings. The authors evaluate OmniUE on the new OmniCHOIR benchmark and other multimodal tasks, reporting significant performance gains over state‑of‑the‑art baselines across textual, audio, and visual interactive settings.

AudioTETRIS is a training‑free, two‑stage token elimination framework designed for large audio language models. It leverages the geometry of audio encoder representations as an acoustic prior to compute per‑token importance scores, which guide progressive top‑k token selection across decoder layers. Experiments on Qwen2‑Audio‑7B, Phi‑4‑Multimodal, and Audio Flamingo 3 show that AudioTETRIS retains near‑full performance while using only 25% of audio tokens and outperforms existing training‑free baselines.
