DiaRelay: Relaying Dialogue Context with a Constant-Size Memory for Emotion Recognition in Conversation

DiaRelay introduces a lightweight adapter that lets large language models maintain a constant‑size dialogue‑level memory for emotion recognition in conversation. It builds on LoRA by adding a Selective Relay Memory Transition that aggregates useful historical evidence into a bounded memory, and a Dual‑axis Relay Memory Read that uses this memory to modulate low‑rank feature transformations. Experiments show DiaRelay achieves state‑of‑the‑art weighted F1 and accuracy on MELD with only 7.1 M additional trainable parameters, while also performing competitively on IEMOCAP.

Toward Anthropomorphic Dialogue: A Closed-Loop Framework for Human-Like Chat Generation, Evaluation, and Preference Alignment

arXiv:2607. 17191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Human-like private chat requires more than fluent response generation: a system must preserve persona, relationship, memory, bounded knowledge, medium-specific timing, and a coherent multi-turn arc.

RoleBreak: Benchmarking Long-Horizon Role-Playing Robustness in Spoken Dialogue

RoleBreak is an open benchmark designed to evaluate long‑horizon role‑playing robustness in spoken dialogue systems. It includes 310 character‑based and user‑centered roles, 6,688 human‑verified dialogue turns, and 11,743 fine‑grained evaluation criteria, with 1,856 turns specifically targeting expressive vocal emotion. The benchmark stresses role consistency, interaction quality, safety, and affect over extended conversations, and the authors evaluated nine system configurations across full‑duplex, omni‑modal, and cascaded ASR–LLM–TTS paradigms.
