1. **[CosyVoice: A Scalable Multilingual Zero-shot Text-to-speech Synthesizer based on Supervised Semantic Tokens](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/du-2024-cosyvoice-scalable-multilingual-zero-shot/)** *(2024 · 93 citations)* LLM-based zero-shot text-to-speech systems usually rely on speech tokens learned without supervision. Such tokens carry little explicit semantic content and align poorly with text. The authors, from Alibaba's Speech Lab, address this with a supervised semantic speech (S3) tokenizer. They take a multilingual ASR…
2. **[Closing the Modality Reasoning Gap for Speech Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-closing-modality-reasoning-gap-speech/)** *(2026 · 2 citations)* Speech LLMs, which pair a speech encoder and adapter with a text LLM, reason noticeably worse on spoken questions than on the same questions in text.
