arXiv:2607. 04383v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) reason fluently about sound yet struggle to localize precisely when events occur, while classical Sound Event Detection attains frame-level precision only over a closed label set.
arXiv:2606. 01802v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: MOSS-Audio is a unified audio-language model for speech, environmental sound, and music understanding, supporting audio captioning, time-aware question answering, timestamped transcription, and audio-grounded reasoning.
arXiv:2606. 12300v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Temporal grounding--returning the interval $[t_s, t_e]$ for a natural-language query over a video--is the language interface to long-form video, yet has been studied on short videos; the dynamics of hour-scale natural-language grounding remain underexplored.
arXiv:2607. 16736v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper presents RealDESED, a real-world domestic sound event detection (SED) benchmark comprising 5,710 audio recordings collected by 652 participants in their homes.
arXiv:2603. 18558v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long-form video question answering requires reasoning over extended temporal contexts, making frame selection a critical bottleneck for multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) bound by finite context windows.
Recent Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) have achieved remarkable progress in audio perceptual tasks across individual acoustic layers, including speech, sound, and music. However, existing benchmarks predominantly evaluate these layers in isolation, overlooking the complex contextual relationships that arise when multiple acoustic sources co-occur in real-world auditory scenes.
