arXiv:2607. 11801v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large audio-language models (LALMs) often underperform on fine-grained, non-semantic attributes of speech, such as a speaker's emotion, despite strong performance on speech content.
arXiv:2502. 14671v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) representations are known to align with brain activity during language processing, but it remains unclear what drives this alignment.
arXiv:2606. 09770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Nearby neurons in cortex share similar response profiles, producing systematic spatial organization across sensory and cognitive systems.
arXiv:2608. 01481v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Short segments of perceived speech can be retrieved from non-invasive magnetoencephalographic (MEG) recordings by deep networks trained with a CLIP-style objective against wav2vec 2.
The paper presents the first music‑specific, layer‑wise empirical study of hallucination in audio‑language models, framing it as a hierarchical perceptual grounding failure across five layers: sound events, temporal properties, tonal attributes, style, and emotion. It introduces MuseDiag, a diagnostic framework that evaluates nine models and finds universal vocal misperception, significant tonal perception differences, and identifies Audio‑Flamingo‑3 as the most stable model. The study also proposes two training‑free mitigation methods, ADD‑M and TPA, which reduce hallucination in probing but show variable effectiveness in free‑form generation, highlighting the need for multi‑paradigm evaluation.
arXiv:2511. 05350v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We argue that training autoencoders to reconstruct inputs from noised versions of their encodings, when combined with perceptually motivated losses, yields encodings that are structured according to a perceptual hierarchy.
