Abstract

We present a personalized Korean visual speech recognition (VSR) system and quantify, on the nine-camera OLKAVS corpus, the gap between the population-level benchmark score and an individual user's error. A video-only Conformer initialized from English-trained weights attains 9.95 - 12.19% character error rate (CER) under the corpus protocol against the published 26.64, and 19.00 - 21.52 on unseen wording. Per speaker, CER spans 1.0 to 52.2%, with seen wording lowering CER by 7.0 - 9.0 points and professional delivery and spontaneous speech raising it by 8.5 - 10.5 and 12.7 points. A low-rank adapter with 4.6% of the parameters, trained on 4 to 29 minutes of the user's frontal video, lowers the CER of twelve high-error speakers by 2.13 to 3.58 points, transfers to every camera without loss, and keeps 85% of the full fine-tuning gain at 12% of its cost to other speakers. Cameras above the mouth plane add about six CER points as a constant offset that training on all views keeps small.

NVV-Locator: From Transcript Tags to Acoustic Boundaries for Fine-Grained Nonverbal Vocalization Grounding

Human speech includes nonverbal vocalizations (NVVs), such as laughter, sighs, breaths, and coughs, which convey affective and interactional information. Existing approaches typically represent NVVs as transcript-level tags, providing limited supervision for their waveform-time boundaries. We present NVV-Locator for fine-grained NVV temporal grounding. We first unify 26 NVV categories across public resources and construct large-scale timestamp-supervised training data through dual-LLM verification, transcript-guided forced alignment, and energy-based boundary refinement. We further introduce NVV-TimeBench, an expert-refined benchmark with 667 utterances and 1,094 events. NVV-Locator uses a non-autoregressive slot-filling architecture to jointly predict lexical timestamps, NVV categories, and event boundaries. On NVV-TimeBench, it achieves 71.0% Micro F1, 70.2% Macro F1, 80.4% Macro mIoU, and 59.6 ms Macro mMAE, outperforming the evaluated large audio model counterparts. Evaluation on an external corpus further demonstrates the cross-corpus generalization of NVV-Locator.

Attendance-guided speaker enrollment across meetings

Speaker-aware applications rely on enrolled voice profiles, yet collecting enrollment speech from every participant is impractical. Meeting archives provide an alternative source of enrollment speech, comprising recordings of recurring participants paired with expected attendance lists. We investigate whether expected attendance lists can be cross-referenced with diarized anonymous speaker clusters to identify reliable enrollment speech for recurring participants. The resulting task, multi-participant automatic enrollment, must accommodate two types of attendance noise: a listed participant may not speak, and a speaker may be unlisted. To this end, we introduce a benchmark for the task: a synthetic corpus calibrated to an in-house meeting corpus, paired with a contamination-sensitive evaluation protocol. The reference method we introduce scores cross-session cluster chains against expected-attendance patterns and abstains when the evidence is insufficient. We quantify the reference method's benchmark performance as a trade-off between enrollment success and contamination. Applying synthetic-development thresholds unchanged to real meetings exposes a synthetic-to-real gap that remains an open challenge. We will release the benchmark generator and evaluation code.

VeriSpoof: Beyond Real or Fake with One Audio LLM

A speech deepfake detector estimates whether a recording is synthetic, but a forensic analyst also asks which system produced it, whether recordings share a source, and what evidence supports each conclusion. We present VeriSpoof, an audio language model that unifies five tasks with shared weights: deepfake detection, generator attribution (generator, acoustic model and vocoder), recording-condition analysis, synthesized-span localisation, and source verification. Each decision is supported by grounded rationales whose statements can be independently verified. Answers are scored by sentence likelihood, allowing detection and source verification to be thresholded without separate heads. Rationale statements can be checked against waveform measurements, span labels, or generator metadata. Counterfactual examples train decisions to follow the stated evidence. Across the 14 Speech-DF-Arena test sets, VeriSpoof-Plus achieves 2.14% pooled EER, ranking third of 28 systems and first among open-weight systems. VeriSpoof-Base, trained only on official training splits of eight corpora, achieves 4.43% EER, less than half that of the next open-weight detector. With the same weights, VeriSpoof-Plus verifies whether recordings from generators unseen in training share a source at 6.2% EER. Controlled studies show that the audio representation governs detection, the LLM governs recording comparison, and source supervision is necessary for neural-codec fakes. Statement-checkable rationales catch partial fakes missed by one-step answers (99.6% vs. 78.4% on PartialEdit) and determine decisions under edits unseen in training (99.5%). Training updates only 29.7M of 2.85B parameters, fitting a single 24 GB GPU with gradient checkpointing. We release both models, inference code, a demo, and VeriSpoof-Bench, the evaluation suite covering these questions.
