arXiv:2502. 16584v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advancements in audio tokenization have significantly enhanced the integration of audio capabilities into large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2605. 13075v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Few-shot spoken word classification has largely been developed for applications where a small number of classes is considered, and so the potential of larger-scale few-shot spoken word classification remains untapped.
arXiv:2606. 07387v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: State-of-the-art text-to-music generation systems rely on massive proprietary datasets and industrial-scale compute, making it impossible to disentangle architectural contributions from resource advantages.
arXiv:2511. 16757v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Audio-language pretraining (ALP) holds promise for learning general-purpose audio representation, yet remains underexplored.
AnchorPrompt is an adaptation technique for large audio‑language models that keeps the base model frozen and learns a single block of prompt vectors inserted at the decoder input. By training these prompts through self‑distillation on diverse audio and text perturbations, the method improves answer consistency and reduces hallucinations across multiple benchmarks. The approach is perturbation‑agnostic at inference, enabling zero‑shot transfer to unseen distortions such as reverberation and choice permutations.
arXiv:2605. 13672v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Few-shot classification (FSC) is widely used for learning from limited labeled data, yet most evaluations implicitly assume that target concepts are independent of contextual cues.
SonicCaps is a large-scale audio captioning dataset featuring approximately 15 million captions paired with 700,000 audio clips, created using the Qwen3-Omni multimodal language model. The dataset emphasizes diversity by generating around 24 captions per clip through structured prompt engineering and few-shot generation, covering main descriptions, rephrased variants, and semantic tags. Human evaluations rate SonicCaps higher than existing datasets, and training CLAP models on it improves audio retrieval and zero-shot classification across public and commercial benchmarks.
arXiv:2606. 08898v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In the task of few-shot class-incremental audio classification, the number of classes is assumed to always increase without considering the possibility of decrease.
