This study examines the Voxtral audio-language model (ALM) framework for spoofing detection, as a step toward combining CM capabilities within the ALM framework, and proposes an instruction-guided approach that uses label-sequence likelihoods to evaluate bonafide and spoofed speech.

A three-stage audit of six widely accessible conversational AI systems compares refusal behaviour across 1,600 crossed prompts per system, isolates relational framing through 300 matched prompt pairs, and contrasts pre-submission framing with post-output critique across fresh sessions.
This work uncovers short context additions that redirect 61.4%-73.2% of each decision system's initially correct decisions toward a wrong option fixed in advance, exposing a weakness in current decision models.

SemMSA, a latent semantic-aided framework that constructs rich sentiment-relevant semantics with LLMs, fully integrating with all modalities via anchor-free spectral alignment, is proposed.

ARGUS, a source-grounded pipeline that combines a 5W1H-inspired schema, legal-domain models, and LLM-based structured generation to construct document-level Event Knowledge Graphs (EKGs) from CourtListener complaints, suggests that EKGs are most useful for organizing and reasoning over evidence once relevant material h...
Automatic speech recognition is typically trained assuming that the reference transcript is the only valid labeling of an utterance, yet even nominally verbatim transcripts contain localized differences in pronunciation, spelling, or lexical realization that the acoustics do not uniquely determine. Omni-temporal Classi...

This hybrid system uses large language models to propose and ground visual elements, estimate their salience to the narrative, and generate compressed realizations, which makes better decisions than prompted LLMs about what to describe and when to describe it.

A native-reference phone-class geometry for measuring second language (L2) pronunciation deviation without requiring pronunciation labels, read-aloud prompts, or matched recordings from native and L2 speakers is proposed.

The failure modes for the parsing tasks are characterized, and it is concluded that a generation score alone does not show that models understand formal semantic representations.
The Artificial Societies Benchmark is introduced to help researchers assess whether synthetic populations support their intended analyses and helps researchers identify which aspects of a synthetic population can support their analysis and where researchers need further human evidence.

Vietnamese speech research is constrained by resources that isolate automatic speech recognition from speaker, dialect, code-switching, and deepfake analysis. We introduce VietPrism, an open, multi-domain corpus that brings these dimensions together at scale: 993.4 hours and 403,941 bona fide utterances from 1,262 veri...
Many-shot in-context learning (ICL) enables large language models (LLMs) to adapt to complex tasks by conditioning on thousands of demonstration examples, but this paradigm shifts the inference efficiency bottleneck to the key-value (KV) cache memory. Due to the linear scaling behavior of the KV cache, storing these in...

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
