arXiv:2606. 10738v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent multimodal large language models mainly process audio as monaural signals, thereby discarding the spatial cues contained in spatial audio for sound localization, spatial relation reasoning, and spatial scene understanding.
arXiv:2607. 24786v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Weak supervision sets a practical regime for audio-visual sound source localization as dense spatial annotations are costly to obtain at scale.
arXiv:2606. 29031v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In regulated domains such as banking and healthcare, where privacy constraints make real speech costly to collect and retain, synthetic speech from modern text-to-speech (TTS) is an appealing alternative for training automatic speech recognition (ASR) without exposing sensitive customer recordings.
arXiv:2601. 06199v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scaling Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to long-form speech is bottlenecked by the explosive growth of input tokens.
arXiv:2606. 30700v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-supervised learning enables audio representations that transfer across domains and tasks.
Humans can selectively attend to a target sound and estimate its direction in complex scenarios, whereas such selective localization remains challenging for current deep learning-based systems. Sound source localization (SSL) has achieved remarkable success with deep learning, yet most methods localize all active sources without selectivity.
