Qwen-Audio-3.1-ASR Technical Report

We present Qwen-Audio-3.1-ASR, a family of audio-language models that builds upon its predecesor Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR with improved speech recognition and expanded capabilities in speaker-diarized transcription and general audio understanding. The family retains support for 30 languages and 16 Chinese dialects, together with instruction-controlled capabilities including historical-context conditioning, hierarchical hotword customization, and native transcription polishing. Speaker-diarized ASR produces structured outputs containing speaker labels, timestamps, and recognized text, maintaining consistent speaker labels across turns and the representation of overlapping speech. The general audio understanding capabilities cover audio-, speech-, and music-captioning, temporal grounding and sound event detection, as well as audio question answering and multiple-choice reasoning. These tasks broaden the application scope from recognizing spoken words to interpreting speakers, acoustic events, and their temporal relations. To accommodate different deployment requirements, the family includes variants for asynchronous file transcription, low-latency streaming, interactive voice input, and non-streaming recognition, with speaker-diarized transcription and general audio understanding available in certain variants. Evaluations span conventional ASR, multilingual and dialectal speech, speaker-diarized transcription, and general audio understanding, demonstrating the capabilities of the Qwen-Audio-3.1-ASR family across transcription and broader audio analysis tasks.

Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR Technical Report

In recent years, automatic speech recognition (ASR) has witnessed transformative advancements driven by three complementary paradigms: data scaling, model scaling, and deep integration with large language models (LLMs). However, bridging the gap between academic benchmark performance and real-world production utility remains a persistent challenge, particularly in handling diverse regional dialects, dynamic entities and hotwords, long-range contextual information, and disfluent spontaneous speech. In this report, we present Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR, a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLM-based ASR system designed to address these production demands through a unified, instruction-following framework. The model is built upon the Qwen backbone, and is trained on tens of millions of hours of large-scale speech data. Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR supports transcription across 30 languages and 16 Chinese dialectal varieties spanning eight major dialect regions. Beyond multilingual and dialectal recognition, the model provides production-oriented capabilities including industry-domain entity recognition, hierarchical hotword customization, native single-pass transcription polishing, and long-audio contextual modeling. We further develop a dedicated streaming variant, Qwen-Audio-3.0-ASR-Streaming, for latency-sensitive applications. Extensive evaluations on Chinese, English, multilingual, and real-world industrial test sets demonstrate state-of-the-art or highly competitive recognition performance across a broad range of evaluation conditions, with strong performance relative to leading commercial and proprietary systems including GPT-4o Transcribe and Gemini 3.1 Pro.

Nearly Optimal Probabilistic Coverage for Roadside Advertisement Dissemination in Urban VANETs

Advertisement disseminations based on Roadside Access Points (RAPs) in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) attract lots of attentions and have a promising prospect. In this paper, we focus on a roadside advertisement dissemination, including three basic elements: RAP Service Provider (RSP), mobile vehicles and shops. The RSP has deployed many RAPs at different locations in a city. A shop wants to rent some RAPs, which can disseminate advertisements to vehicles with some probabilites. Then, it tries to select the minimal number of RAPs to finish the advertisement dissemination, in order to save the expenses. Meanwhile, the selected RAPs need to ensure that each vehicle's probability of receiving advertisement successfully is not less than a threshold. We prove that this RAP selection problem is NP-hard. In order to solve this problem, we propose a greedy approximation algorithm, and give the corresponding approximation ratio. Further, we conduct extensive simulations on real world data sets to prove the good performance of this algorithm.
