SPEARBench: A Benchmark for Naturalness Evaluation in Streaming Speech-to-Speech Language Models
Streaming speech-to-speech language models aim to answer spoken queries directly with synthetic speech. However, standard speech and text benchmarks do not capture whether these systems behave naturally in conversations, where timing, turn-taking, prosody, interpersonal stance, language and dialect consistency, and relationship-aware appropriateness jointly shape perceived quality. We introduce SPEARBench, a benchmark for evaluating naturalness in speech-to-speech language models from question-answer interactions. SPEARBench constructs controlled dialogue prompts from the Seamless Interaction
SAMoR: Motion Modelling for Articulated Objects of Any Skeleton and Topology
Modeling motion for articulated objects of arbitrary skeleton topology remains difficult: existing motion generators target a fixed human skeleton, and prior adaptations either fail to share a vocabulary across rigs or discard motion detail through global pooling. Our key observation is that while joint-level motion does not correspond cleanly across species, motion of functional joint groups does: a human arm, a wolf foreleg, and a bird wing share motion structure despite differing joint counts and connectivity, a correspondence that joint names (e.g., "forearm", "wing_L1") partially expose e
PACE-Bench: Benchmarking Physics Adaptation via Code Evolution in Dynamic Environments
Self-evolving agents improve future behavior from interaction experience, yet existing evaluations typically optimize under fixed execution conditions and do not test recovery after those conditions change. To address this gap, we introduce PACE-Bench (Physics Adaptation via Code Evolution), a simulator-grounded benchmark of 144 source-to-target adaptation pairs across six physics domains. Each pair links a source environment to a mutated target environment with the same goal and interface. A code-driven design that succeeds in the source fails in the target, where agents must iteratively adap
