SageLM: A Multi-aspect and Explainable Large Language Model for Speech Judgement

AAAI 2026technical

Speech-to-Speech (S2S) Large Language Models (LLMs) are foundational to natural human-computer interaction, enabling end-to-end spoken dialogue systems. However, evaluating these models remains a fundamental challenge. We propose SageLM, an end-to-end, multi-aspect, and explainable speech LLM for co

Adaptive Decoding for Efficient Automatic Speech Recognition

ICASSP 2025accepted

The latency and computation demand of End-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) models hinder their deployment on lightweight devices. Despite there are many methods proposed for efficiency, the computational burden of the output layer with a large vocabulary is still a major challenge for…

Leveraging Unit Language Guidance to Advance Speech Modeling in Textless Speech-to-Speech Translation

ACL 2025finding

The success of building textless speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) models has attracted much attention. However, S2ST still faces two main challenges: 1) extracting linguistic features for various speech signals, called cross-modal (CM), and 2) learning alignment of difference languages in long se…

RankPrompt: Step-by-Step Comparisons Make Language Models Better Reasoners

COLING 2024main

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved impressive performance across various reasoning tasks. However, even state-of-the-art LLMs such as ChatGPT are prone to logical errors during their reasoning processes. Existing solutions, such as deploying task-specific verifiers or voting over multiple re…

RankNAS: Efficient Neural Architecture Search by Pairwise Ranking

EMNLP 2021main

This paper addresses the efficiency challenge of Neural Architecture Search (NAS) by formulating the task as a ranking problem. Previous methods require numerous training examples to estimate the accurate performance of architectures, although the actual goal is to find the distinction between “good…
