arXiv:2607. 12468v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We describe our submission to Task 1 of the 2nd MLCSLM Challenge: a cascaded diarization-then-recognition system that combines DiariZen-Large-s80 (WavLM-Large) segmentation, CAM++ embedding-based two-speaker clustering, and a LoRA-adapted omniASR LLM 7B v2 recognizer, with no oracle segmentation or speaker labels at test time.

The paper introduces a new target‑speaker unlearning task for automatic speech recognition (TSU‑ASR) that allows certain speakers to opt out of transcription while still indicating their presence. A lightweight Enrollment‑Conditioned Gating (ECG) module is added to a frozen dual‑stream speech LLM, enabling dynamic unlearning of new opt‑out speakers during inference. Experiments on AMI and AliMeeting datasets show significant drops in transcription accuracy for opt‑out speakers while preserving performance for retained speakers.

The Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR Technical Report introduces a Mixture-of-Experts large language model-based automatic speech recognition system that addresses real‑world production challenges such as regional dialects, dynamic entities, hotwords, long‑range context, and disfluent speech. Built on the Qwen backbone and trained on tens of millions of hours of speech data, it supports transcription in 30 languages and 16 Chinese dialects, and offers industry‑domain entity recognition, hierarchical hotword customization, single‑pass polishing, and long‑audio contextual modeling. A streaming variant, Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR-Streaming, is also presented for low‑latency applications, with evaluations showing state‑of‑the‑art performance against leading commercial systems.

Omnilingual-MsASR is a new benchmark designed to evaluate omni‑modal large language models on long‑form, multi‑speaker automatic speech recognition across six languages, with recordings up to 30 minutes and up to 20 speakers. The benchmark provides parallel audio and video inputs to test cross‑modal consistency and the models’ ability to use complementary cues from both modalities. Evaluations of leading omni‑modal LLMs show significant performance gaps, with many models achieving word error rates above 100%, underscoring challenges in temporal localization, speaker disambiguation, and cross‑modal synergy.

The Qwen‑Audio‑3.1‑ASR family extends its predecessor with enhanced speech recognition and new speaker‑diarized transcription and general audio understanding features. It supports 30 languages and 16 Chinese dialects, offering instruction‑controlled capabilities such as historical‑context conditioning, hierarchical hotword customization, and native transcription polishing. The models deliver structured speaker‑diarized outputs, handle overlapping speech, and perform audio‑captioning, sound‑event detection, and audio question answering across multiple deployment variants.
