Temporally-Aligned Evaluation for Audio-Driven Talking Head Generation

arXiv:2606. 01031v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio-driven talking-head generation has advanced rapidly, yet existing evaluation protocols mainly rely on frame-wise metrics that assume strict temporal correspondence between generated and reference videos.

FacePlex: Full-Duplex Joint Speech-Facial Motion Generation for Conversational Avatars

Natural face-to-face conversation requires real-time speech generation together with synchronized facial motion. Existing systems only partially address this problem: speech-only full-duplex models can generate speech in real time but do not produce facial motion, while audio-driven facial motion models animate a face from already available audio rather than jointly generating speech and motion online.

Reference-Driven Multi-Speaker Audio Scene Generation from In-the-Wild Priors

arXiv:2606. 19325v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing multi-speaker dialogue systems bind speakers to utterances through structured supervision: per-turn tags, multi-stream transcriptions, or learnable speaker embeddings.

Encode Once, Decode Never: Reusing Audio LM Internals for Efficient Temporal Localization

arXiv:2602. 10230v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Audio language models process input audio into rich frame-level representations, but the standard approach to temporal localization generates timestamps as sequences of text tokens, which discards the frame-level representations in favor of autoregressive decoding.
