The NVVSpeech Challenge 2026: Overview and Lessons for Speech Understanding and Generation with Nonverbal Vocalizations

Nonverbal vocalizations (NVVs), such as laughter and sighs, convey meaning alongside words. NVV-aware speech systems must recognize and generate these events while preserving lexical accuracy and perceptual quality. Yet differences in annotation, resources, and evaluation complicate comparisons, and aggregate scores ca...

MSVAE: Rethinking Musical Semantics in Continuous Latent Spaces

Continuous latent representations underlie recent diffusion-based lyrics-to-song and text-to-music systems, yet aligning lyric conditions with these latents remains difficult: existing systems resort to generator-side machinery such as sentence-level timestamps, auxiliary alignment objectives, or semi-autoregressive de...

StreamTN: A Low-Latency Streaming Chinese Text Normalization Model for Streaming TTS in Dialogue Systems

Text-to-Speech (TTS) is an essential module that provides spoken responses in a spoken dialogue system (SDS) centered on a large language model (LLM). To ensure accurate TTS synthesis, responses generated by an LLM must be converted into TTS-readable formats via a Text Normalization (TN) module, imposing strict low-lat...

Rethinking Music Tokenization: A Semantic Codec toward High-Fidelity LLM Music Generation

Discrete audio tokenization has become the critical interface between raw waveforms and autoregressive modeling in recent music generation. As a result, music tokenizers must simultaneously support high-fidelity reconstruction and produce discrete sequences that remain amenable to language modeling. Existing reconstruc...

SemBridge: Semantic Token Anchoring for Continuous-Latent Autoregressive Speech Generation

SemBridge is proposed, a training-only semantic-token anchoring framework for continuous-latent autoregressive speech generation and demonstrates that explicit semantic-token supervision for autoregressive state learning is an effective and general direction for continuous speech generation.
