TalkFa introduces a unified benchmark for Farsi dialogue generation and understanding, comprising three datasets: WIKI‑FADIAL (4.2K Wikipedia‑grounded dialogues), DAILYDIALOG‑FA (6.6K dialogues with dialogue‑act and emotion annotations), and PLAYDIAL‑FA (2.1K theatrical dialogues with sentiment labels). All dialogues are curated through multi‑stage review by native speakers, ensuring high quality. Experiments show that LoRA fine‑tuning improves generation performance with less data, while specific models excel on classification tasks, and human evaluation confirms the benchmark’s reliability.

The paper introduces Inverse Turing Bench, a benchmark designed to assess how well language models can distinguish between human-only and human-AI dialogues in multi-turn text. It provides paired dialogue transcripts and evaluates models on correctly identifying the type of conversation. Preliminary results show GPTZero, Claude Opus-4.6, and GPT-5.5 achieving the highest accuracies of 89.41%, 77.92%, and 75.94% respectively, highlighting both the strengths and limitations of statistical versus semantic detection approaches.

The paper introduces a decoupled data approach for the Neural Finite State Machine (NFSM) framework to improve full‑duplex dialogue. It serializes real human‑human spoken dialogues into FSM tapes using a rule‑based event‑guided transformation, while shaping semantics through human‑agent text dialogues. A Source‑Aware Calibrated (SAC) loss is proposed to balance state‑transition token distribution and align each data source with its strongest supervisory signal, leading to better turn‑taking performance without sacrificing semantic quality.
