轻量级语音生成模型,让大模型说话不掉线、不降质。
LLMVoX: Autoregressive Streaming Text-to-Speech Model for Any LLM
- 通过多队列流式传输解耦语音合成与大模型处理
- 3000万参数,低延迟下保持低错误率,支持无限对话
- 无需微调大模型,可跨语言扩展,适配多模态场景
近期语音对话系统虽借助大模型实现多模态交互,但面临微调需求高、计算开销大及文本-语音错位等问题。现有语音增强型大模型常因修改基础模型而损害语言能力。为此,我们提出 LLMVoX——一个轻量级(3000万参数)、与大模型无关的自回归流式语音合成系统,可在低延迟下生成高质量语音,同时完全保留基础大模型的能力。该方法相比现有语音增强型大模型显著降低词错误率,且在延迟和语音质量(UTMOS)上相当。通过多队列令牌流系统解耦语音合成与大模型处理,支持无缝无限长对话。其即插即用设计可灵活扩展至不同任务。此外,仅需数据集适配即可泛化至新语言,在阿拉伯语语音任务中达到低字符错误率。我们还将 LLMVoX 集成至视觉-语言模型,构建兼具语音、文本、视觉能力的全能模型,无需额外多模态训练。代码与项目页面见 https://mbzuai-oryx.github.io/LLMVoX。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Recent advancements in speech-to-speech dialogue systems leverage LLMs for multimodal interactions, yet they remain hindered by fine-tuning requirements, high computational overhead, and text-speech misalignment. Existing speech-enabled LLMs often degrade conversational quality by modifying the LLM, thereby compromising its linguistic capabilities. In contrast, we propose LLMVoX, a lightweight 30M-parameter, LLM-agnostic, autoregressive streaming TTS system that generates high-quality speech with low latency, while fully preserving the capabilities of the base LLM. Our approach achieves a significantly lower Word Error Rate compared to speech-enabled LLMs, while operating at comparable latency and UTMOS score. By decoupling speech synthesis from LLM processing via a multi-queue token streaming system, LLMVoX supports seamless, infinite-length dialogues. Its plug-and-play design also facilitates extension to various tasks with different backbones. Furthermore, LLMVoX generalizes to new languages with only dataset adaptation, attaining a low Character Error Rate on an Arabic speech task. Additionally, we have integrated LLMVoX with a Vision-Language Model to create an omni-model with speech, text, and vision capabilities, without requiring additional multimodal training.
