TL;DR

VibeVoice-ASR-Streaming is one of the first LLM-based end-to-end approaches to streaming speaker-attributed ASR, allowing the model to produce''who said what''as speech arrives, without a separate diarization stage.

Abstract

Traditional speaker-attributed ASR systems treated ASR and speaker diarization as two separate tasks. Recently, end-to-end models such as VibeVoice-ASR have unified the two tasks within a single model. However, existing unified models still mainly support offline recognition, making it difficult to meet the low-latency requirements of real-time voice assistants and agents. To tackle this issue, we present VibeVoice-ASR-Streaming, one of the first LLM-based end-to-end approaches to streaming speaker-attributed ASR. It interleaves fixed-size audio chunks, a small amount of lookahead audio and previous text. This allows the model to produce''who said what''as speech arrives, without a separate diarization stage. For transcription accuracy, our 7B model achieves the lowest average WER/CER across five evaluation sets. For speaker attribution, it achieves the best or tied-best on 12 of 13 evaluation settings. We release the 1.5B and 7B model weights together with inference code.

Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 Technical Report

Recently, large language model (LLM) based ASR models have achieved significant progress, yet they generally lack support for multi-speaker scenarios, where the cocktail party problem remains a critical bottleneck for further advancing ASR.

FASTDIAR: Frame-level speaker encoder for Streaming Diarization

Real-time conversational agents require speaker diarization that streams and runs on a CPU. Most systems apply an utterance-level speaker encoder to short, heavily overlapping chunks, which wastes computation and leaves the model optimized for the wrong task. We instead turn a state-of-the-art speaker recognition archi...

STAM-ASR: Speaker-Temporal Anchoring with Memory for Multi-Speaker ASR

Natural conversations make both speech recognition and speaker attribution challenging for ASR, as speakers take turns, overlap, and reappear over time. We propose STAM-ASR, Speaker-Temporal Anchoring with Memory, a lightweight framework that extends an already pretrained AudioLLM for multi-speaker ASR. Without relying...

Inference-Time Target Speaker Unlearning in LLM-Based Automatic Speech Recognition

We introduce target-speaker unlearning ASR (TSU-ASR) task in a fully end-to-end framework for multi-speaker ASR and diarization. Given a multi-speaker utterance and a set of opt-out speakers who do not wish to have their speech transcribed, the task requires an ASR system to transcribe all speakers except the opt-out o...
