Abstract

Human voice generation has made rapid progress in speech generation, singing voice generation, voice cloning, and voice editing. However, most existing systems are designed for specific tasks and often rely on task-dependent architectures, control signals, or autoregressive decoding, limiting fine-grained controllability and inference efficiency. In this paper, we propose CookVoice, a unified framework for multimodal, multi-style, and multi-task human voice generation. CookVoice decomposes the human voice into three key factors: content, prosody, and style, enabling both speech and singing voice generation within a unified model. To achieve precise and flexible controllability, we design a flexible alignment strategy that maps text, style, and prosody control signals onto the frame-level of spectrogram. This design allows CookVoice to support a wide range of tasks, including text-to-speech, text-to-singing voice, style-controllable generation, voice mimicry, voice conversion, and voice editing. Experimental results show that CookVoice achieves generation quality comparable to existing Text-to-Speech and text-to-singing voice baselines, while providing stronger style and prosody controllability. Moreover, CookVoice achieves comparable performance to large-scale baselines with only 43.51 million parameters and efficient inference using as few as 4 ODE steps, making it a practical solution for real-world human voice generation applications.

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.
