MusicTwins: Training Audio-Language Models to Listen like Their Persona
arXiv cs.SD0 views
arXiv:2610.32495v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: People differ in how they perceive music, what associations they make with it, what they like about it, and how they respond to it. Computational models intended to simulate people in environments that include music should account for these differences. Although LLMs have been shown to reproduce aspects of human behavior, whether audio-language models (ALMs) can reproduce a specific person's responses to textual and musical stimuli remains underexplored. We introduce MusicTwins, a framework that combines persona summaries, personal memory, and post-training to generate person-specific responses. We construct persona representations from human writings, capturing background, views, personality, writing style, and a musical profile, and post-train Audio Flamingo Next through supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning. Evaluation on ten held-out personas shows notable improvements for Audio Flamingo Next in persona fidelity, including personality, writing style, and responses to music, supporting MusicTwins as a foundation for training audio-language models to listen like their persona.
