Abstract

With the rapid advancement of generative AI, multimodal deepfakes, which manipulate both audio and visual modalities, have drawn increasing public concern. Currently, deepfake detection has emerged as a crucial strategy in countering these growing threats. However, as a key factor in training and validating deepfake detectors, most existing deepfake datasets primarily focus on the visual modal, and the few that are multimodal employ outdated techniques, and their audio content is limited to a single language, thereby failing to represent the cutting-edge advancements and globalization trends in current deepfake technologies. To address this gap, we propose a novel, multilingual, and multimodal deepfake dataset: PolyGlotFake. It includes content in seven languages, created using a variety of cutting-edge and popular Text-to-Speech, voice cloning, and lip-sync technologies. We conduct comprehensive experiments using state-of-the-art detection methods on PolyGlotFake dataset. These experiments demonstrate the dataset's significant challenges and its practical value in advancing research into multimodal deepfake detection.

Scaling Audio Models Efficiently: Joint Optimization of Scale, Resolution, Adaptation, Precision, and Sparsity

Large automatic speech recognition (ASR) models such as Whisper must be deployed across hardware with widely varying memory and inference-speed constraints. We present a compression framework that jointly parametrizes Whisper deployment along six dimensions: model size, temporal resolution, encoder token stride, low-rank adaptation capacity, weight precision and sparsity pattern. All axes are jointly optimized using NSGA-III with respect to three deployment objectives: word error rate (WER), inference FLOPs, and memory footprint. Across 50 of the 1,680 candidate configurations evaluated, we characterize the conditional effect of each axis and identify compression combinations that dominate naive single-axis scaling, while finding that 1:4 structured sparsity fails to recover acceptable accuracy under the tested recovery budgets. We report measured WER and resident memory, use analytical EffFLOPs as the search-time compute surrogate, and separately validate representative inference configurations using measured real-time factor (RTF).

StepAudio 3 Realtime Technical Report

Realtime spoken interaction demands deep reasoning, prompt responses, and fluid turn-taking. We present StepAudio 3 Realtime, an audio-language foundation model organized around a continuous listen-converse-think-act loop. Deep Perception captures rich acoustic cues to interpret user intent, while Seamless Duplex models synchronized audio streams to handle pauses, backchannels, and interruptions naturally. Crucially, we resolve the tension between deep deliberation and latency via Think-While-Speaking, executing private reasoning in parallel with spoken delivery. In reasoning mode, StepAudio 3 reaches a 73.0 macro average on StepAudioChat. With Think-While-Speaking, it achieves dialogue and reasoning performance comparable to dedicated reasoning models while speaking in real time. Furthermore, an integrated Voice Agent handles asynchronous tool execution without disrupting the dialogue flow. StepAudio 3 Realtime achieves top-tier performance across key dimensions: an exceptional 90.6 on the MMSU benchmark, 98.9 Overall on the Artificial Analysis Full-Duplex Bench, and a 56.0% macro task-success rate on $τ$-Voice.

ParA-LLM: A Unified Approach to Paralinguistic and Acoustic Speech Understanding

Recent advances in Audio LLMs have achieved human-level speech recognition, yet existing systems struggle to capture paralinguistic aspects such as speaker traits, expressive variations, and environmental acoustic conditions. To address this, we design a framework of 22 paralinguistic characteristics and create a dataset of over 1.2M Audio-QA pairs. We develop ParA-LLM, trained with a two-stage curriculum: first on single-attribute questions to build foundational knowledge, then on multi-attribute questions for joint reasoning over speaker and acoustic characteristics. We also release ParA-Bench, a benchmark of 6,000 multiple-choice questions across speaker-speech, acoustic, and mixed categories, where frontier models like GPT-4o-Audio achieve only 36% accuracy. ParA-LLM surpasses state-of-the-art Audio LLMs like GPT-4o-Audio by 7.5% on ParA-Bench, with additional gains of 1.13% on MMAU-Pro Speech and 7.49% on MMAR Speech.
