2025Despite recent advancements in speech processing, zero-resource speech translation (ST) and automatic speech recognition (ASR) remain challenging problems. In this work, we propose to leverage a multilingual Large Language Model (LLM) to perform ST and ASR in languages for which the model has never seen paired audio-text data. We achieve this by using a pre-trained multilingual speech encoder, a multilingual

2025Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can enhance the generation quality of large language models (LLMs) by incorporating external token databases. However, retrievals from large databases can constitute a substantial portion of the overall generation time, particularly when retrievals are periodically performed to align the retrieved content with the latest states of generation. In this paper, we introduce

DCC 20252025Video compression enables the transmission of video content at low rates and high qualities to our customers. In this paper, we consider the problem of embedding a neural network directly into a video decoder. This requires a design capable of operating at latencies low enough to decode tens to hundreds of high-resolution images per second. And, additionally, a network with a complexity suitable for implementation

2025This work presents advancements in audio pretraining objectives designed to generate semantically rich embeddings, capable of addressing a wide range of audio-related tasks. Despite significant progress in the field, current methods often emphasize full fine-tuning in downstream applications, which can obscure the true potential of pretrained audio encoders. In this study, we present an audio encoder that

2025Existing automatic prompt engineering methods are typically designed for discriminative tasks, where new task prompts are iteratively refined with limited feedback from a single metric reflecting a single aspect. However, these approaches are suboptimal for generative tasks, which require more nuanced guidance beyond a single numeric metric to improve the prompt and optimize multiple aspects of the generated
