Audio Sentiment Analysis via Distillation and Cross-Modal Integration of Generated Multilingual Transcripts

arXiv:2607. 06611v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatically recognizing the sentiment, positive or negative, from speech is a challenging task, requiring both the analysis of vocal inflections and the interpretation of uttered words.

End-to-End Training for Discrete Token LLM based TTS System

arXiv:2606. 09234v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent state-of-the-art (SOTA) text-to-speech (TTS) systems typically adopt a cascaded pipeline consisting of a speech tokenizer, an autoregressive large language model (LLM), and a diffusion based flow-matching (FM) model, with these components trained independently.

Unified Audio Intelligence Without Regressing on Text Intelligence

Audio intelligence involves understanding, reasoning about, and generating both audio and speech. In this work, we introduce Nemotron-Labs-Audex-30B-A3B (Audex), a unified audio-text LLM built on Nemotron-Cascade-2-30B-A3B, a strong text-only MoE LLM.
