TurboT2VA: Fast Large-Scale Text-to-Video-Audio Generation via Score-Regularized Consistency Distillation
Joint text-to-video-audio generation produces synchronized visual and acoustic content, but the long sampling trajectories and heterogeneous multimodal computation of large models make inference prohibitively expensive. We present TurboT2VA, a distillation and inference framework for accelerating a 19B-parameter joint video-audio model. Large-scale T2VA distillation is challenged by modality-imbalanced optimization, the difficulty of continuous-time consistency training at scale, and the quality--diversity trade-off. TurboT2VA addresses these issues with per-modality normalization and a progre
Target-Aware Calibration Data Selection for Preserving Uncertainty in Quantized Language Models
Quantization is widely used to deploy large language models, but its effect on uncertainty behavior, such as confidence, margins, and abstention, is rarely treated as a primary objective. We frame calibration-data selection for quantization as a target-dependent uncertainty-preservation problem. Different deployments emphasize different regions of the input distribution, yet prior work mainly optimizes accuracy-oriented compression metrics or adjusts scores after quantization. We formalize this goal with distributional and boundary preservation risks, and provide a simple mixture-mismatch argu
Do We Really Need Multimodal Emotion Language Models Larger Than 1B Parameters?
Recent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have significantly improved the performance of multimodal emotion recognition (MER) and enabled interpretable description generation by jointly modeling video, audio, and language, etc. However, these performance improvements are often accompanied by an increase in model parameter size (e.g, at least 7B), which simultaneously incurs high computational costs and reduces inference efficiency, thereby hindering real-time deployment on resource-constrained platforms such as robots and mobile devices. This raises a fundamental question: do
