arXiv:2606. 11386v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Full-duplex spoken language models (FD-SLMs) enable seamless speech interaction by allowing models to listen and speak simultaneously, yet the internal mechanism by which they coordinate listening and speaking remains underexplored.
arXiv:2606. 07547v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech-based large language models are typically constrained to spoken replies, which limits their user-facing outputs to what can be verbalized and suppresses text-native capabilities such as code generation, structured analysis, and multi-step reasoning in realtime interaction, for tasks that require persistent, structured, and inspectable intermediate outputs.
arXiv:2606. 05121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio is an inherently interactive modality, yet today's Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) are offline, and streaming audio models each handle only a single task such as streaming ASR or voice chatting.
arXiv:2606. 11400v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) excel at audio understanding but expose little about where in an audio signal they attend.
arXiv:2608. 13817v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human speech production is constrained by physiology, giving rise to characteristic temporal structure on acoustic signals.
arXiv:2606. 11599v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Activation steering offers a lightweight approach to control language models' behavior at inference time, but whether it succeeds or fails heavily depends on the prompt, concept, model, and steering configuration.
arXiv:2608. 08469v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing streaming multimodal models process observations incrementally but still follow a turn-based prefill-then-decode pattern, making them non-duplex: new observations cannot naturally enter an active generation stream.
arXiv:2510. 05150v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in spoken dialogue language models (SDLMs) reflect growing interest in shifting from turn-based to full-duplex systems, where the models continuously perceive user speech streams while generating responses.
arXiv:2607. 06831v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech-to-text alignment means finding the temporal boundaries of each word in the audio.
arXiv:2606. 10368v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech-to-text (S2T) systems for recognition (ASR) and translation (S2TT) typically generate discrete text tokens.
arXiv:2603. 16859v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Omni-modal large language models (OLMs) redefine human-machine interaction by natively integrating audio, vision, and text.
arXiv:2606. 07080v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present dots.
arXiv:2608. 07631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-based full-duplex voice services allow users to speak while the assistant is responding.
