arXiv:2606. 02631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper studies whether audio, images, and video can share a common wavelet token schema rather than relying on separate modality-specific latent grids.

arXiv:2608. 05798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Latent diffusion modeling (LDM), a prominent paradigm, utilizes tokenizers to map input signal to compressed representation.
arXiv:2608. 08794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Omni-modal LLMs jointly process audio, video, and text, but long multimodal sequences incur substantial prefill and KV-cache costs.
arXiv:2606. 02739v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio tokenizers serve as the discrete interface between continuous audio and Audio Language Models (ALMs), but existing tokenizers often struggle to support both understanding and generation.
arXiv:2606. 06357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continuous audio autoencoders reconstruct waveforms well but often produce latents with weak structure for understanding, while self-supervised audio encoders capture semantics but are not directly decodable.
Neural audio codecs are a key component of speech processing pipelines, compressing audio into discrete tokens for downstream modeling. However, existing codecs struggle to balance reconstruction quality with token efficiency, often encoding perceptually irrelevant information such as background noise and recording artifacts at the expense of linguistically and acoustically meaningful content.
arXiv:2603. 15685v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Omnimodal large language models (OmniLLMs) jointly process audio and visual streams, but the resulting long multimodal token sequences make inference prohibitively expensive.
