arXiv:2508. 07048v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) encoder-decoder models dominate high-quality multilingual ASR, but their left-to-right decoders make inference latency scale with transcript length.

Open web-scale pre-training corpora remain concentrated in English, limiting multilingual LLM development. We introduce MultiSynt/MT, an open synthetic parallel corpus with approximately 4.
arXiv:2603. 05121v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speech Large Language Models route speech encoder representations into an LLM decoder that typically accounts for over 90% of total parameters.
Current speech translation systems, including SpeechLLMs, are trained on cleaned text and tend to strip disfluencies like filled pauses and false starts rather than translate them. We show this comes at a cost: disfluencies carry meaning that gets lost when speech is cleaned up.
arXiv:2607. 21042v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive text-to-speech models achieve strong naturalness but suffer from slow inference due to sequential token generation, limiting their deployment in production applications that require low latency.
arXiv:2608.29239v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-resource ASR remains difficult because scarce transcripts provide limited supervised evidence for target-side generation. To address this gap, we p...
OmniFusion is an end‑to‑end multilingual multimodal translation system that fuses a pretrained multimodal foundation model (Omni 2.5‑7B) with a translation large language model (SeedX PPO‑7B). By connecting hidden states from multiple layers of the multimodal model to the translation LLM, OmniFusion can translate speech, speech‑and‑image, and text‑and‑image inputs while reducing simultaneous speech‑translation latency by about one second compared to cascaded pipelines. The approach improves overall translation quality by leveraging both audio and visual context.
