X-OPD: Cross-Modal On-Policy Distillation for Capability Alignment in Speech LLMs

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2603. 24596v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While the shift from cascaded dialogue systems to end-to-end (E2E) speech Large Language Models (LLMs) improves latency and paralinguistic modeling, E2E models often exhibit a significant performance degradation compared to their text-based counterparts.

X$^3$-OPD: Distilling Reasoning into Large Audio-Language Models via On-Policy Alignment

arXiv:2607. 21550v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While large audio-language models have achieved remarkable progress in auditory perception, they still lag behind text-based large language models in deep logical reasoning, primarily due to the scarcity of high-quality audio reasoning data.
