Breaking the Quality--Intelligibility Trade-off in Streaming Target Speaker Extraction via Deep-Feature-Anchored Preference Optimization

arXiv:2607. 10191v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative streaming models for Target Speaker Extraction (TSE) commonly exhibit a quality--intelligibility trade-off, wherein naive optimization for perceptual audio quality tends to degrade speech intelligibility, and conversely.
