VoxCPM2 Technical Report

Abstract

We present VoxCPM2, a https://info.arxiv.org/help/prep#abstractsfully open-source multilingual and controllable speech generation foundation model that extends the hierarchical diffusion-autoregressive modeling paradigm of VoxCPM. VoxCPM2 advances the framework in three key dimensions: (i) capability, by unifying 30 languages, 9 Chinese dialects, natural-language voice design, style-controllable voice cloning, and high-fidelity continuation cloning within a single backbone; (ii) quality, through an asymmetric AudioVAE that encodes at 16 kHz and reconstructs at 48 kHz, enabling implicit super-resolution with high encoding efficiency; and (iii) scale, by jointly scaling the model to 2B parameters and the training data to over 2 million hours of multilingual speech. To support these diverse capabilities within one model, we introduce a unified sequence organization that expresses all generation modes through different arrangements of the same input building blocks, allowing joint training under a single set of parameters and objective. VoxCPM2 achieves state-of-the-art or competitive performance on public zero-shot and instruction-following TTS benchmarks. On our internal 30-language evaluation set, it attains an average WER of 1.68%. These results demonstrate that hierarchical continuous-latent modeling, without relying on any external discrete speech tokenizer, offers a viable and powerful foundation for large-scale multilingual and controllable speech generation. The model weights, fine-tuning code, and inference tools are publicly released under the Apache 2.0 license to foster community research and development.

Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 Technical Report

Recently, large language model (LLM) based ASR models have achieved significant progress, yet they generally lack support for multi-speaker scenarios, where the cocktail party problem remains a critical bottleneck for further advancing ASR. Existing TS-ASR methods, including end-to-end architectures with speaker embeddings and latest LLM-based explorations suffer from degraded single-speaker performance and the inability to reject when the target speaker is absent. In this paper, we propose Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1, an LLM-based end-to-end TS-ASR architecture. By utilizing reference speech as voiceprint prompts, it directly transcribes the target speaker's speech without requiring speech separation. Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 maintains competitive performance in single-speaker scenarios, comparable to mainstream ASR models. It also features a negative sample rejection capability, outputting empty text when the target speaker is absent from the mixed speech. Additionally, Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 supports a Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning mode to provide explicit reasoning steps. Extensive experiments on various synthetic and real-world multispeaker benchmarks demonstrate that Xiaomi-CocktailASR-1 achieves state-of-the-art performance, effectively addressing the cocktail party problem through a unified architecture that balances multispeaker and single-speaker recognition accuracy, along with rejection capability.

EConv-TasNet: Efficient Conv-TasNet for Effective Speech Separation

Conv-TasNet has served as a strong baseline for time-domain speech separation, and many studies have extended it with advanced architectures such as dual-path networks, U-Nets, and attention mechanisms. However, these methods often introduce high computational cost and complexity, limiting their deployment in resource-constrained scenarios. To address this issue, we propose eConv-TasNet, an efficient variant of Conv-TasNet that improves both effectiveness and efficiency without relying on resource-intensive modules. The proposed model consists of a group-wise early-splitting (GES) module and a multi-group feature aggregation (MGFA) module. GES generates discriminative speaker embeddings at intermediate stages, while MGFA progressively aggregates these group-level representations for refined mask estimation. Experimental results show that eConv-TasNet reduces model size by 22.4%, accelerates inference by 18.9%, and improves SI-SNRi by 14.0%-28.0% across three public benchmarks. Moreover, it achieves competitive performance compared with state-of-the-art methods while requiring significantly fewer parameters and lower inference cost. These results demonstrate a favorable efficiency-effectiveness trade-off for edge deployment.
