Existing single-domain and multi-task audio systems remain limited in directly organizing heterogeneous audio components, ambience, and multiple roles into long-form temporal scenes. We present Qwen-Audio-3.0-Gen-Preview, a unified non-autoregressive framework that uses a Diffusion Transformer (DiT) and a shared variational autoencoder (VAE) to generate the complete mixed waveform. Prompt enhancement converts free-form requests into structured temporal records that are rendered as textual conditions, while a two-stage data curriculum and semantic conditional views train the proposed model to use these conditions across standalone and mixed-scene audio. A shared continuous VAE compresses 48kHz stereo waveforms into 25Hz latent sequences and incorporates semantic supervision, providing one representation for heterogeneous audio. On the public reference-conditioned benchmark, speaker similarity is the proposed model's clearest strength across all three subsets. Across the multi-speaker and rich-timeline benchmarks, its clearest comparative strengths are cross-turn consistency in both languages and temporal localization, respectively. On AudioCaps, its advantages are concentrated in evaluations using large audio-language models and AudioBox. These results demonstrate the potential of unified generation for temporally structured audio without task-specific branches.

Omni models transcribe clean, single-speaker speech well, but their accuracy drops sharply when speakers overlap and the scene is noisy, exactly where knowing who said what matters most. A natural fix is a short scene description. We show why this is risky: answer-bearing text lets the model copy instead of listen, so the score rises although nothing has been heard; a silent test exposes this shortcut at once. We call this failure mode perception bypass and address it with Audio-Grounded Scaffold Context (AGSC). AGSC links three steps: first, we build clues from audio to guide listening without giving the answer; second, answer-overlap and silence tests probe them for leakage and audio dependence; finally, those clues scaffold training but vanish at test time, yielding no-clue capability. Across three heterogeneous Omni models, training on AGSC lowers no-clue capped mean permutation word error rate (mpWER) on overlapping, noisy speech from 25%-71% to 9%-15%. For streaming control, we formulate a joint GDPO task in which the model learns when to use a clue and how to produce a speaker-attributed transcript from separately normalized format, gate, and transcript rewards. After internalization, AGSC adds almost no inference overhead.
In recent years, automatic speech recognition (ASR) has witnessed transformative advancements driven by three complementary paradigms: data scaling, model scaling, and deep integration with large language models (LLMs). However, bridging the gap between academic benchmark performance and real-world production utility remains a persistent challenge, particularly in handling diverse regional dialects, dynamic entities and hotwords, long-range contextual information, and disfluent spontaneous speech. In this report, we present Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR, a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLM-based ASR system designed to address these production demands through a unified, instruction-following framework. The model is built upon the Qwen backbone, and is trained on tens of millions of hours of large-scale speech data. Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR supports transcription across 30 languages and 16 Chinese dialectal varieties spanning eight major dialect regions. Beyond multilingual and dialectal recognition, the model provides production-oriented capabilities including industry-domain entity recognition, hierarchical hotword customization, native single-pass transcription polishing, and long-audio contextual modeling. We further develop a dedicated streaming variant, Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR-Streaming, for latency-sensitive applications. Extensive evaluations on Chinese, English, multilingual, and real-world industrial test sets demonstrate state-of-the-art or highly competitive recognition performance across a broad range of evaluation conditions, with strong performance relative to leading commercial and proprietary systems including GPT-4o Transcribe and Gemini 3.1 Pro.

Reinforcement learning (RL) has become one of the primary paradigms for reasoning enhancement of large language models (LLMs). In particular, Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) and related algorithms have demonstrated strong performance with outcome-level rewards. However, these methods depend solely on the final answer, without feedback regarding which intermediate steps contribute to success or failure. As task complexity and reasoning trajectory length increase, such sparse final-answer rewards become increasingly insufficient. To address this limitation, we introduce ConsensusBench, a novel dataset designed to provide rule-based process-level signals. We posit that a correct final answer relies on a small set of intermediate conclusions throughout the reasoning process, which can be seen as a verifiable sub-outcome. We identify these sub-outcomes by filtering correct trajectories from N rollouts and clustering semantically equivalent intermediate statements. We call these clustered statements as Consensus Nodes. By integrating a rule-based process reward derived from these nodes into GRPO-style algorithms, we develop a new reinforcement learning signal named ConsensusPR. It directly reduces the reward sparsity of outcome reward across long reasoning trajectories. To facilitate systematic process-level evaluation, we introduce three metrics to our benchmark: Final Answer Accuracy (Acc), Node Coverage Rate (NCR), and Tokens per Node (TPN). Experiments across AIME 2024, AIME 2025, GSM8K, MATH-500, and our ConsensusBench demonstrate that the proposed method consistently surpasses GRPO-style approaches, highlighting the practical value of consensus nodes in guiding reasoning.

In this report, we present Qwen-Audio-3.0-TTS, a production-oriented speech synthesis system that jointly advances content consistency, speaker similarity, prosodic naturalness, audio quality, controllability, multilingual coverage, efficiency, and robustness. It combines a 12.5~Hz low-frame-rate speech tokenizer for reduced inference latency with a five-stage progressive training paradigm for coordinated language model (LM) and flow-matching model (FM) optimization. The model provides production-level control through free-style natural-language instructions and fine-grained inline tags, while supporting 16 languages, 20 Chinese dialect regions, one-pass long-form synthesis up to 3 minutes, and robust generation from noisy, reverberant, or unclear reference speech. Across SEED-TTS-Eval, CV3-Eval, instruction-following, long-form, and acoustic-robustness evaluations, Qwen-Audio-3.0-TTS achieves state-of-the-art performance on many reported dimensions or the strongest aggregate results. It also ranks first on the independent Artificial Analysis Text-to-Speech Leaderboard. These results establish Qwen-Audio-3.0-TTS as a strong foundation for production-level speech synthesis.
