MESH: Multi-receiver Evaluation of Spatial Hearing across Egocentric and Allocentric Views

Wen Wen, Bohan Li, KwanHo Tam, Yu Xi, Jing Peng, Shuai Wang, Kai Yu

原文摘要

Spatial hearing in multi-receiver environments requires identifying who speaks, where they are, and how they move. Existing benchmarks evaluate spatial prediction, transcription, tracking, and distributed speech processing, but offer limited evaluation of whether speech signal remains associated with the correct physical source across receivers and motion. We introduce MESH, which evaluates this association through egocentric and allocentric views of shared acoustic scenes. The egocentric view uses local recordings and peer metadata, while the allocentric view combines synchronized recordings from multiple receivers in a shared 3D world frame. MESH contains nearly 40,000 questions across 13 static and dynamic localization and spatial transcription tasks. We evaluate eleven audio-model configurations and a language-model agent using specialist tools. The best static distance-estimation and dynamic direction-tracking accuracies are only 21.90% and 41.54%, respectively, while the lowest word error rates across four transcription tasks range from 59.15% to 73.10%. Ablation studies and additional experiments reveal that existing models are not yet able to effectively leverage peer information and struggle to handle multi-speaker and dynamic scenarios. These findings highlight the gap between access to distributed acoustic information and its effective use for spatial speech understanding. We release the dataset and evaluation code to support further research on collaborative and distributed spatial hearing.

S3-S2ST: Semantically Supervised Streaming Speech-to-Speech Translation

Yuxiang Zhao, Zhiyun Fan, Yu Pu, Yanjie An, Yushen Chen, Wenrui Liang, Baiji Liu, Yunchong Xiao 等 14 位作者

原文摘要

Streaming speech-to-speech translation requires timely decisions about when partial input is sufficient for accurate translation. We present S3-S2ST, a model that learns to translate and speak from semantically aligned streaming supervision. By converting utterance-level speech pairs into incremental training examples, we teach a learned policy when to commit translations. Its adjustable threshold controls the quality--latency tradeoff on a fixed 640\,ms input grid. S3-S2ST delivers competitive English--Chinese translation on FLEURS and leads the evaluated streaming systems in translation quality on the internal 9-pair test set. On RealSI, adapting the threshold to buffered speech further improves quality over a low fixed threshold with little change in first-audio latency. We have released the training and inference code and 4B model weights at https://github.com/QwenAudio/S3-S2ST

Structured Confidence Perturbation via Fisher Geometry for Adversarial Training

Chenlong Wei, Hanling Wang, Chong Zhang, Qinkai Yu, Fangyu Wu, Xiaobo Jin

原文摘要

Adversarial training is often plagued by "pseudo-attacks", perturbations that significantly increase the loss value but fail to truly alter the model's confidence structure. To address this, we propose two complementary approaches to directly attack and defend against confidence structure deformation. First, building upon the traditional loss maximization perspective, we introduce a hybrid objective that integrates cross-entropy and KL divergence, encouraging adversarial examples to simultaneously disrupt prediction accuracy and distribution consistency. Second, we geometrically reconstruct adversarial training by generating perturbations that maximize the distribution distance on the confidence manifold. Theoretical analysis shows that the optimal perturbation direction aligns with the principal eigenvectors of the Fisher information matrix. We also propose an efficient algorithm to avoid high-dimensional matrix computations. Experiments on multiple datasets and model architectures demonstrate that our method outperforms existing methods in adversarial robustness and robust transferability, particularly excelling in structural perturbations within high-confidence regions.

Large language models show systematic failures in incorporating evolving medical knowledge

Min Zeng, Zaifu Zhan, Kai Yu, Rui Zhang

原文摘要

Medical knowledge evolves, yet whether large language models (LLMs) faithfully incorporate revisions into clinical recommendations remains unclear. We introduce ChronoEvo, comprising 1,709 recommendation-level revisions across 12 forms of medical knowledge change and 275 guideline lineages, to distinguish recognition of revised guidance from its full incorporation. With updated guideline evidence explicitly provided, revision recognition exceeded full incorporation across 14 models, with a 20.1-percentage-point gap in the strongest model. For Qwen3-4B, 90.8% of responses recognized revisions, 80.2% were clinically correct, and 58.5% fully incorporated them, yielding a 32.3-percentage-point gap. Two clinicians' adjudicated assessment of 300 responses yielded a 40.3-percentage-point gap in this enriched validation sample; 61 of 144 responses with incomplete incorporation were clinically incorrect. Prompting Qwen3-4B to prioritize revised evidence reduced outdated-content retention and improved clinical correctness without significantly improving full incorporation. These findings identify faithful incorporation of revised guidance as a distinct challenge for clinical LLM reliability.

X-Talk: On the Underestimated Potential of Modular Speech-to-Speech Dialogue System

Zhanxun Liu, Yifan Duan, Mengmeng Wang, Pengchao Feng, Haotian Zhang, Xiaoyu Xing, Yijia Shan, Haina Zhu 等 20 位作者

原文摘要

We present X-Talk, an open-source framework that champions a decoupled, modular design for LLM-driven speech-to-speech (S2S) systems. While the dominant trend favors end-to-end (E2E) modeling to optimize information flow, these "omni-models" often struggle to balance the competing objectives of complex speech tasks within a single network. X-Talk challenges this paradigm by demonstrating that a systematically optimized cascaded pipeline can achieve sub-second latency without sacrificing modular flexibility. Our framework seamlessly integrates specialized front-end components (e.g., VAD, speech enhancement) and diverse understanding models (e.g., ASR, emotion, and environmental sound analysis) with LLM capabilities like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and tool use. By revitalizing the cascaded approach, X-Talk highlights the underestimated potential of modular S2S systems and provides a robust foundation for future research and applications.

From Procedures to Permissions: Learning Precise Subagent Authorization from Agent Skills

Wenkai Yu, Ning Ding, Wentao Zhang, Yehui Tang

原文摘要

As language agents tackle increasingly complex tasks, they increasingly rely on multiple agents to coordinate specialized work, requiring decisions not only about what each subagent should do but also which tools and workspace resources it should access. Existing agent systems provide mechanisms for controlling tools and execution environments, but do not directly specify the resources required by each delegated subtask. Moreover, task outcomes and execution trajectories alone provide limited supervision for determining whether a subagent has received appropriate permissions. We observe that Agent Skills encode procedural knowledge describing the operations, tools, and files required at each step, providing a natural source of supervision for authorization. Building on this observation, we synthesize tasks and step-by-step procedures from Skills, execute them through subagent delegation in interactive environments, and use verified trajectories to construct training data for task execution and authorization. On ClawArena-Team, our method improves tool permission precision by 13.4 percentage points and workspace permission precision by 24.1 percentage points, while increasing overall task success by 11.6 percentage points for Qwen3.5-35B-A3B. On Terminal-Bench 2.1 and SkillsBench, our method remains competitive with existing agent data synthesis approaches. These results show that the procedural knowledge embedded in Agent Skills provides a source of supervision for precise subagent orchestration that task outcomes alone cannot provide.

MASBench: Benchmarking LLM-based Multi-Agent Collaboration under Partial Observability

Qizhi Chu, Zekai Yu, Sijie Wen, Yang Liu, Chen Qian, Cheng Yang, Chuan Shi, Zhiyuan Liu

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) have progressively evolved into the core of autonomous agents. Building on this progress, LLM-based multi-agent systems (MAS) coordinate multiple agents into a synergistic team to accomplish complex tasks that exceed the capabilities of individual agents. The effectiveness of such systems depends not only on the agents themselves, but also on how collaboration mechanisms are designed and organized. Note that real-world collaboration is typically partially observable, where each agent can only access partial information about the environment due to physical or privacy-related constraints. However, many existing multi-agent benchmarks assume global observability, and leave limited support for systematically evaluating collaboration mechanisms. To bridge this gap, we introduce MASBench, a multi-agent collaboration benchmark designed under partially observable constraints. It is organized into three progressive task categories: Reasoning, Scheduling, and Game. Through this structure, we progressively evaluate three representative collaboration mechanisms: Protocol, Memory, and Routing. MASBench further provides deterministic evaluation metrics, including performance score, communication cost, and cost effectiveness, to characterize both collaboration outcomes and communication overhead. Experiments across diverse LLM backbones and mechanism configurations offer empirical guidance for effective MAS design. Code is available at: https://github.com/BUPT-GAMMA/MASBench

GigaSpeech 3: Scaling Multi-Dialect Arabic Speech Recognition with Weakly Labeled Data

Junzhe Liu, Yujie Tu, Yifan Yang, Peng Wang, Haoran Wang, Guodong Lin, Leyan Liao, Chengquan Zhang 等 16 位作者

原文摘要

Dialectal Arabic speech recognition remains constrained by the scarcity of dialect-resolved transcribed speech despite the abundance of web audio. We introduce GigaSpeech 3, a corpus of 39,000 hours and 10 million weakly transcribed speech segments covering Algerian, Egyptian, Iraqi, Saudi, and Syrian Arabic. Starting from 60 hours of manual transcription per dialect, we train labeling models using speech-recognition-biased self-supervised learning and apply them to dialect-matched web audio. Data selection and four rounds of noisy-student refinement for Saudi and Syrian Arabic yield the final corpus. We validate its utility through dialect-specific and multi-dialect speech recognition training and cross-domain evaluation. On GigaSpeechBench, the final dialect-specific models outperform their labeling models across all five dialects and achieve a macro-average word error rate of 23.86%, a 16.6% relative reduction from the strongest third-party system covering all five dialects, while outperforming the best third-party result on three dialects. A multi-dialect model using self-predicted dialect identities achieves a macro-average word error rate of 25.51% while also supporting Modern Standard Arabic. Across eight conditions from three external corpora, a GigaSpeech 3-trained Zipformer achieves the lowest word error rate among six evaluated models in every condition, while adapting the Qwen3 speech recognizer on GigaSpeech 3 improves performance across all eight conditions. We release the corpus and recipes as a foundation for dialect-aware Arabic speech processing.

LeanSparse: Memory-Efficient Serving for Native Sparse-Attention LLMs

Zaifeng Pan, Chris Wu, Xinwei Qiang, Zhengding Hu, Zhongkai Yu, Yufei Ding

原文摘要

Sparse attention limits the history read by each query, but serving long contexts still requires substantial GPU memory. Existing KV offloading systems retain the full history of indexer keys on GPU, limiting decode concurrency. Prefill's temporary memory demand can further delay admission even when enough memory remains for the same request's subsequent decode. We present LeanSparse, a serving system that reduces both decode's persistent memory use and prefill's temporary memory demand. Our design exploits two observations: prefill consumes historical data one layer at a time, and decode can identify promising candidates before comparing their original indexer scores. During prefill, LeanSparse streams layer histories through two reusable GPU buffers, overlapping next-layer loading with ongoing model computation. During decode, coarse-to-fine indexing searches compact representations and retrieves original indexer keys only for candidate refinement. Separate indexer key and KV caches reuse data across generation steps. We implement LeanSparse in SGLang and evaluate it on DeepSeek-V4-Flash. At 950K context length, LeanSparse supports 2.95$\times$ as many concurrent requests and achieves 2.14$\times$ decode throughput over HiSparse. On multi-turn Open-SWE traces, it reduces median time to first token from 21.6 to 0.6s and median session completion time by 17.7% relative to ECHO.

Qubrio: High-Performance Quantum Compilation via Multi-Agent LLM Collaboration

Jixuan Ruan, Zhuo Cui, Zhengding Hu, Zhongkai Yu, Xiang Fang, Yue Guan, Jason Ludmir, Phillip E. Weinberg 等 13 位作者

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) offer an adaptable alternative to traditional quantum compilation heuristics, which bottleneck progress by demanding costly manual redesigns whenever hardware evolves. However, naive single-pass LLM approaches fail under the unique challenges introduced by quantum compilation. We introduce Qubrio, a practical agentic framework that significantly reduces heuristic redesigns through a three-level decomposition. By (1) partitioning programs into sequential operation stages, (2) deploying specialized agents for placement, routing and optimization, and (3) using disaggregated feedback for precise error correction, our system reliably navigates complex physical constraints. Beyond serving as a direct compiler, our LLM framework also uncovers novel strategies that facilitate convoy-style shuttling, substantially enhancing hardware concurrency without sacrificing fidelity. We further integrate these strategies into the previous state-of-the-art (SOTA) compiler, recovering a significant fraction of the LLM's performance advantages. On realistic workloads, our compiler achieves significant improvements in hardware runtime and program fidelity over the SOTA baseline PowerMove, seamlessly adapting to new hardware capabilities. Qubrio features an open user interface for practical use, and its code is publicly available at https://github.com/crosaa/Qubrio.

ETC-Bench: A Multilingual Benchmark for Evaluation-Side Transcript Canonicalization

Zhiheng Qian, Junhao Du, Jing Peng, Hanqi Li, Kunyang Peng, Feng Xue, Shuai Wang, Kai Yu

原文摘要

Written transcripts of the same speech can differ in ways that are not uniquely determined by the speech signal. We formulate evaluation-side transcript canonicalization (ETC), which maps multiple surface forms to a single canonical form when their differences are not determined by speech. To our knowledge, ETC-Bench is the first and most comprehensive multilingual benchmark for evaluation-side transcript canonicalization, covering 181 phenomenon types across 12 languages. Each instance is a minimal pair that shares a sentence context and differs only in a target span exhibiting one phenomenon. To evaluate both canonicalization success and semantic preservation, we propose Semantic-preserving Exact-match Normalization Accuracy (SENA), which combines exact agreement between independently canonicalized pair members with a pair-relative BERTScore constraint against information loss. We further introduce the Taxonomy-guided Agent Canonicalization Skill (TACS), which provides LLM agents with phenomenon descriptions and explicit canonicalization contracts. Experiments with five baseline configurations and three TACS-based agents show that the agents outperform the baseline systems on shared languages. ETC-Bench provides a systematic testbed for evaluation-side transcript canonicalization across languages.

dots.tts.edit: Precisely Controlled Speech Editing with a Continuous Autoregressive Model

Hankun Wang, Bohan Li, Shi Lian, Xiaoyu Gu, Jing Peng, Da Zheng, Yiwei Guo, Colin Zhang 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Speech editing for content creation requires precise control over both what an edit should do and where it should apply. Free-form natural language provides a flexible interface for expressing edit requests, but its ambiguity may leave the intended operation, parameters, or target region underspecified. We study a semi-formal transcript-grounded edit instruction that specifies operation categories and parameters and binds them to transcript spans or boundaries. This semantic timeline avoids explicit timestamp alignment and provides an externally inspectable contract for compositional edits. We instantiate the interface in dots$.$tts$.$edit, a speech editing model built on a continuous autoregressive speech generation architecture. Four representative speech-creation controls cover lexical content, affective expression, pitch and speaking-rate delivery, and temporal phrasing through text, emotion, prosody, and pause editing. Task-specific data pipelines construct operation- and scope-controlled pairs while retaining source-derived context outside each target region. We further introduce doteBench, a bilingual benchmark that measures precise instruction following, local preservation, and audio quality across the four controls and their composition. Experiments show leading overall instruction following and local preservation across its five editing categories, while audio quality remains comparable to existing open-source systems. Across three Seed-TTS-Eval shards, the model shows negligible differences from the base model in zero-shot TTS recognition error rate and speaker similarity.

SpaceAct: Benchmarking 3D Spatial and Temporal Reasoning via Closed-Loop Action and Active Perception

Chenglong Shi, Zekai Yuan, Yue Song, Jon Pu, Will Wu

原文摘要

To solve problems in 3D space rather than merely describe images, multimodal large language models (MLLMs) need 3D spatiotemporal reasoning: reconstructing 3D geometry from occluded 2D views, anticipating physical dynamics, and executing precise, closed-loop actions. Prior studies test passive VQA on static images or symbolic planning, requiring no execution or supplying privileged coordinates while ignoring collision, statics, and timing. We introduce SpaceAct, an interactive benchmark evaluating 3D spatiotemporal reasoning via closed-loop physical action and active perception, with SAPA, a Spatiotemporal Active-Probing Agent framework. Built on interlocking bricks and mechanical puzzles, it has 108 verified instances across 36 task families in six categories, without privileged coordinates, and diagnostic modes (+plan, +state, no-camera, blind, L7 levers). In brick-bridging or aperture-threading, models rotate the camera to resolve occlusion, read in-scene rulers, output 6-DoF poses under swept-collision and statics checks, and self-correct via split-screen rollback feedback (dynamic tasks freeze time during deliberation and give five strobe frames). Across 10 frontier MLLMs on the 44 hardest instances, scores span 4.8-79.1 (seven solve at most 27.3% of 6-DoF tasks); for the top three, a reference plan (+plan) closes 44% of the gap while leaving collisions at 5.2 per episode, whereas adding exact 3D state (+state) closes 90% and cuts collisions to 0.5; for four others, +plan lifts the mean score from 10.9 to 35.3 and +state to 81.8; and 46% of failures are collision or observation loops. SpaceAct and SAPA advance evaluation to closed-loop physical interaction, showing that even with a valid plan, MLLMs remain bottlenecked by 3D visual grounding and action refinement, while offering a testbed for active multi-view exploration and explicit 3D grounding.

Read What You Hear: Reference-Free Hypotheses Evaluation with Acoustic Discrepancy

Zhihan Li, Hankun Wang, Yiwei Guo, Bohan Li, Xie Chen, Kai Yu

原文摘要

Automatic speech recognition systems commonly rely on reference transcriptions for evaluation, while reference-free approaches often depend on internal confidence estimation or auxiliary language models. We propose READ (Reference-free Hypothesis Evaluation with Acoustic Discrepancy), a novel metric that evaluates ASR hypotheses directly from the speech signal. READ emphasizes the acoustic grounding of hypotheses. It uses a pretrained auto-regressive TTS model to compute the conditional likelihood of speech tokens given a text hypothesis, to measure fine-grained acoustic discrepancy between speech and text. Without additional training, READ can be applied for hypothesis refinement. Experiments show that READ correlates with specific recognition errors and improves ASR outputs, achieving up to 20\% relative error rate reduction, with particularly strong gains under noisy conditions.

Agentic Data Sampling Framework for Multilingual ASR via Linguistic-Aware Error-Driven Optimization

Zhiheng Qian, Junhao Du, Jing Peng, Hanqi Li, Kunyang Peng, Feng Xue, Lu Chen, Shuai Wang 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Multilingual automatic speech recognition (ASR) has achieved rapid progress with large-scale pretrained models and multilingual speech corpora. Previous studies have proved the pivotal role of data sampling in multilingual ASR performance. However, existing sampling strategies largely rely on time-consuming manual, heuristic-based designs. To address this, we propose a linguistic-aware agentic data sampling framework that introduces a data sampling LLM agent into the multilingual ASR training loop. The agent is driven by a linguistically grounded rubric that analyzes ASR errors from phonological, morphological, and syntactic perspectives, and uses the resulting feedback together with training statistics, budget constraints, and algorithm profiles to select domain-level, sample-level, and token-level sampling strategies. This design turns evaluation results into adaptive data-selection decisions rather than treating WER/CER as final endpoints only. We conduct experiments on twelve Common Voice languages using Whisper-medium as the ASR backbone. The results show that our method achieves performance better than full-data training while using less training data and lower computational resources, and substantially accelerates training convergence compared to conventional sampling strategies.

SLT 2026 REAL-TSE Challenge: Real-world Target Speaker Extraction from Conversational Recordings

Shuai Wang, Zihan Qian, Ke Zhang, Jiangyu Han, Zikai Liu, Xiaoyang Yu, Haoyu Li, Marc Delcroix 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

We introduce the REAL-TSE Challenge, an IEEE SLT 2026 satellite challenge on target speaker extraction~(TSE) from real conversational recordings. Given a multi-speaker mixture and one or more enrollment utterances from a target speaker, participating systems must recover only the target speech. Unlike simulated read-speech benchmarks, REAL-TSE evaluates Mandarin and English recordings that contain natural overlap, reverberation, noise, channel mismatch, and conversational dynamics. The challenge defines two complementary tracks: an Online track for low-latency streaming extraction and an Offline track for full-context processing. Systems are evaluated with Token Error Rate (TER), Speaker Similarity (SpkSim), DNSMOS, and target-speaker activity F1. This overview paper describes the task definition, datasets, baselines, evaluation protocol, submitted systems, condition-wise findings, and lessons for future real-world TSE benchmarks.

UnityBench-Mini3D: Evaluating LLM Agents for 3D Game Development in Unity

Yijun Zhou, Minghao Shao, Ke Zhang, Renkai Yuan, Hongbo Yuan, Bin Hu, Bozhao Qian, Hongxia Shen 等 23 位作者

原文摘要

Game development stresses coding agents in ways general software engineering does not: correctness depends on how engine APIs, serialized scene state, and runtime behavior interact, not on source code alone. Existing benchmarks mainly target platforms such as Godot and heavily rely on LLM judges or coarse task-level outcomes. We present UnityBench-Mini3D, a benchmark of 77 project-level Unity tasks organized around seven expert-defined skill categories rather than tutorials or genres, with three difficulty tiers. Each task pairs a complete Unity project with natural-language requirements and is evaluated using 1,178 held-out, human-authored milestone tests covering scene structure, component configuration, and runtime behavior. This in-engine evaluation provides deterministic partial credit, localizes failures, and distinguishes partial implementations from complete solutions without relying on subjective judges. Across 21 models and 9 coding harnesses, the average pass rate reaches 80.9% on easy tasks but falls to 35.2% on hard tasks, with just 57.7% overall. UnityBench-Mini3D provides a reproducible, diagnostic testbed distinguishing systems across difficulty levels.

The increasing demand for GPU-accelerated machine learning inference has exposed limitations in centralized GPU infrastructures, including high cost, limited elasticity, and long wait times under resource constraints. At the same time, modern Apple Silicon-based macOS devices are equipped with powerful GPUs that remain largely idle during normal usage. This paper presents Minions, a dynamic and distributed virtual GPU cloud that aggregates idle Apple Silicon GPUs across macOS devices to execute large-scale machine learning inference workloads. Minions enables teams to leverage existing hardware without requiring additional GPU procurement. The system provides flexible GPU inference task execution, fault tolerance, and efficient resource utilization. Our experience shows that idle macOS devices can be transformed into a practical distributed GPU inference platform in environments where centralized GPU resources are constrained.

Conditional Memory via Scalable Lookup: A New Axis of Sparsity for Large Language Models

Xin Cheng Peking University, Wangding Zeng DeepSeek, Damai Dai, Qinyu Chen, Bingxuan Wang, Zhenda Xie DeepSeek AI, Kezhao Huang, Xingkai Yu DeepSeek AI 等 14 位作者

原文摘要

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) scales capacity via conditional computation, but Transformers lack a native knowledge lookup primitive. We introduce conditional memory, instantiated via Deep Sparse Embedding (DSE), which indexes a massive embedding table using local n-grams for retrieval. We formalize sparsity allocation problem—how to split a fixed parameter budget between MoE experts and DSE memory—and find a U-shaped scaling law that identifies an optimal balance. Scaling to 27B parameters, DSE outperform an iso-parameter and iso-FLOPs MoE baseline across knowledge and reasoning benchmarks, and achieve markedly stronger long-context performance. Mechanistic analyses show that DSE offloads early-layer static recall into memory, freeing effective depth and attention for higher-level reasoning. DSE is also infrastructure-efficient: its deterministic hashing enables offloading massive parameters into host memory during inference with negligible throughput overhead.
