RW-Voice-EQ Bench: A Real World Benchmark for Evaluating Voice AI Systems

arXiv:2607. 14846v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current voice AI benchmarks typically evaluate isolated capabilities such as speech intelligibility, word error rate, or text-based dialogue quality, but they rarely test whether systems harness the acoustic information that distinguishes spoken language from its textual representation.

Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR Technical Report

The Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR Technical Report introduces a Mixture-of-Experts large language model-based automatic speech recognition system that addresses real‑world production challenges such as regional dialects, dynamic entities, hotwords, long‑range context, and disfluent speech. Built on the Qwen backbone and trained on tens of millions of hours of speech data, it supports transcription in 30 languages and 16 Chinese dialects, and offers industry‑domain entity recognition, hierarchical hotword customization, single‑pass polishing, and long‑audio contextual modeling. A streaming variant, Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR-Streaming, is also presented for low‑latency applications, with evaluations showing state‑of‑the‑art performance against leading commercial systems.
