arXiv:2607. 11801v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large audio-language models (LALMs) often underperform on fine-grained, non-semantic attributes of speech, such as a speaker's emotion, despite strong performance on speech content.

arXiv:2511. 05350v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We argue that training autoencoders to reconstruct inputs from noised versions of their encodings, when combined with perceptually motivated losses, yields encodings that are structured according to a perceptual hierarchy.
