BayLing-Duplex: Native Full-Duplex Speech Dialogue with a Single Autoregressive LLM
Real-time, full-duplex speech interaction is a key feature of next-generation spoken chatbots, allowing the model to listen and speak at the same time and to handle natural phenomena such as overlap, hesitation, and barge-in. Existing speech language models (SpeechLMs) such as LLaMA-Omni and GLM-4-Voice are still turn-based and rely on an external Voice Activity Detection (VAD) module to mark the end of the user's turn, which fundamentally limits their interactive ability. In this paper, we introduce BayLing-Duplex, a native full-duplex SpeechLM where a single autoregressive LLM decides when to listen, when to speak, and when to stop, with no auxiliary turn-taking module. The design adds only a few special tokens to the standard vocabulary, so it transfers across LLMs and reuses existing training and serving stacks with no architectural adaptation. Starting from the public GLM-4-Voice checkpoint and using only 400K full-duplex samples for fine-tuning followed by a lightweight DPO stage, BayLing-Duplex reaches 92% turn-taking success and 100% interruption success on InstructS2S-Eval, while improving the speech-response score from 2.17 to 3.39 over Moshi. BayLing-Duplex also matches or surpasses its turn-based counterpart on Llama Questions, Web Questions, and Alpaca-Eval, showing that simultaneous listen-and-speak modeling does not sacrifice response quality.

Hierarchical Acoustic-Semantic Modeling: Modality Separation and Semantic Coherence for Full-Duplex SLMs
Developing seamless, high-performance, native intelligent full-duplex Spoken Language Models (SLMs) remains a critical challenge and long-standing goal for the speech and NLP community. Despite notable progress, recent e…
DuplexCascade: Full-Duplex Speech-to-Speech Dialogue with VAD-Free Cascaded ASR-LLM-TTS Pipeline and Micro-Turn Optimization
Spoken dialog systems with cascaded ASR-LLM-TTS modules retain strong LLM intelligence, but VAD segmentation often forces half-duplex turns and brittle control. On the other hand, VAD-free end-to-end model support full-d…
DuplexChat: Constructing Speaker-Separated Full-Duplex Dialogue Speech at Scale for Spoken Dialogue Language Modeling
Full-duplex spoken dialogue models are trained on conversational speech in which each speaker is represented as a separate stream, but existing large-scale public speech corpora are mostly monaural, making them unsuited …
