Asset learns to compress speech encoders

It uses reinforcement learning (RL) to adaptively compress audio input sequences for better performance in large language models (LLMs). The framework divides the encoded segments into variable-duration parts and then combines them into a continuous audio token, aiming to maintain task-oriented information while reducing the number of tokens needed. This approach has shown promising results in…
