• Abstract: Speech representation models are highly effective at extracting general features for various tasks. While fine-tuning can enhance these representations for specific applications, it often compromises their generalization ability. To address this challenge, we propose Speech-FT, a fine-tuning strategy for speech representation models that leverages model merging to preserve generalization ability while still benefiting from fine-tuning. Speech-FT is effective across different fine-tuning scenarios and is compatible with various types of speech representation models, providing a versatile solution. Speech-FT offers an efficient and practical approach to further improving general speech representations after pre-training.

  Speech enabled foundation models can perform tasks other than automatic speech recognition using an appropriate prompt. With the development of audio-prompted large language models there is the potential for even greater control options. We demonstrate that with this greater flexibility the systems can be susceptible to model-control adversarial attacks.

  Chain-of-Information Generation (CoIG) is a method for decoupling semantic and perceptual information in large-scale speech generation. SpeechGPT-Gen is efficient in semantic and perceptual information modeling. It markedly excels in zero-shot text-to-speech, zero-shot voice conversion, and speech-to-speech dialogue.
