Accurate recall from large-scale memories remains a core challenge for memory-augmented AI assistants performing question answering (QA), especially in similarity-dense scenarios where existing methods mainly rely on semantic distance to the query for retrieval. Inspired by how humans link informati…
End-to-end speech-in, speech-out dialogue systems are emerging as a powerful alternative to traditional ASR–LLM–TTS pipelines but remain prone to hallucinations due to limited factual grounding. While text-based dialogue models have effectively mitigated this issue through tools such as web search A…
Wearable devices such as AI glasses are transforming voice assistants into always-available, hands-free collaborators that integrate seamlessly with daily life, but they also introduce challenges like egocentric audio affected by motion and noise, rapid micro-interactions, and the need to distinguis…
Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) is a critical component of voice assistants; it consists of converting speech to semantic parses for task execution. Previous works have explored end-to-end models to improve the quality and robustness of SLU models with Deliberation, however these models have rem…
