arXiv:2606. 05173v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Masked language modelling (MLM) has been the dominant pre-training objective for text encoders since BERT, yet it encourages representations that are strongly anchored to surface-form token identity rather than deeper semantic structure.
arXiv:2606. 25225v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-supervised learning from large-scale video data has emerged as a dominant paradigm for visual representation learning.
arXiv:2607. 00784v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language pretraining remains dominated by contrastive objectives, whereas vision-only self-supervised learning has largely adopted non-contrastive methods.
arXiv:2607. 21291v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong generation and reasoning performance, but the Transformer architecture incurs high inference cost.
Self-supervised learning from large-scale video data has emerged as a dominant paradigm for visual representation learning. Since audio and visual streams naturally co-occur in video data, extending this success to jointly learn from both modalities is a natural next step, yet it remains challenging.
arXiv:2602. 17162v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Genomic Foundation Models (GFMs) typically rely on Masked Language Modeling (MLM) or Next-Token Prediction (NTP) to learn the "Laws of Nature".
arXiv:2607. 04011v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While decoders have rapidly scaled, encoders have remained largely unchanged since BERT.
arXiv:2503. 06211v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Text-pretrained language models (LMs) encode rich world knowledge, but adapting them to process and generate perceptual modalities such as audio and images while effectively leveraging that knowledge remains challenging.
arXiv:2608. 09227v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Omnimodal language models (OLMs) enable unified audio-visual understanding, but processing long joint token sequences makes inference computationally prohibitive.
arXiv:2606. 09234v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent state-of-the-art (SOTA) text-to-speech (TTS) systems typically adopt a cascaded pipeline consisting of a speech tokenizer, an autoregressive large language model (LLM), and a diffusion based flow-matching (FM) model, with these components trained independently.
arXiv:2607. 17770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Within Explainable Artificial Intelligence, mechanistic interpretability uses Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) to extract more interpretable features from neural representations.
arXiv:2606. 16595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Zero-shot cross-lingual phoneme recognition is often hindered by the fragility of direct acoustic-to-symbol mapping, which is susceptible to language-specific variations.
arXiv:2606. 30700v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-supervised learning enables audio representations that transfer across domains and tasks.
