OmniFlatten: An End-to-end GPT Model for Seamless Voice Conversation (2025.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Full-duplex spoken dialogue systems allow simultaneous bidirectional communication . low latency and natural interactions in full-duplice systems remains a challenge .
Approach: They propose a multi-stage post-training scheme that adapts a text large language model into a speech-text dialogue LLM.
Outcome: The proposed model can model human conversation behaviors with low latency and natural interactions with low delay.
HeterMPC: A Heterogeneous Graph Neural Network for Response Generation in Multi-Party Conversations (2022.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Experimental results show that HeterMPC outperforms various baseline models for response generation in multi-party conversations.
Approach: They propose a heterogeneous graph-based neural network for response generation in multi-party conversations which models the semantics of utterances and interlocutors simultaneously with two types of nodes in a graph.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms baseline models on the Ubuntu Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channel.
TegTok: Augmenting Text Generation via Task-specific and Open-world Knowledge (2022.findings-acl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Generating natural and informative texts has been a long-standing problem in NLP.
Approach: They propose to augment TExt Generation via Task-specific and Open-world Knowledge in a unified framework.
Outcome: The proposed model can learn what and how to generate on two text generation tasks.
MADNet: Maximizing Addressee Deduction Expectation for Multi-Party Conversation Generation (2023.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods for multi-party conversations rely on addressee labels and can only be applied to an ideal setting where addresses are missing.
Approach: They propose a method that maximizes addressee deduction expectation in heterogeneous graph neural networks for MPC generation.
Outcome: The proposed method outperforms baseline models on Ubuntu IRC channel benchmarks on the task of MPC generation under a common and challenging setting where addressee labels are missing.
Is ChatGPT a Good Multi-Party Conversation Solver? (2023.findings-emnlp)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful tools for multi-party conversations, but their capacity to handle multi-parties remains unexplored.
Approach: They propose to evaluate ChatGPT and GPT-4's zero-shot learning capabilities within the context of multi-party conversations (MPCs) they also propose to incorporate MPC structures, encompassing both speaker and addressee architecture.
Outcome: The proposed models perform poorly on a number of MPC tasks while GPT-4 performs well on speaker and addressee architecture.
