SmoothConv and DuplexConv: Complementary Mandarin Multi-Party Conversational Speech Corpora for Speech Interaction
arXiv eess.AS0 views
arXiv:2610.11150v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in large audio language models (LALMs) have driven the development of natural and intelligent speech interaction systems. Such systems need to model complex conversational behaviors, including turn-taking, overlapping speech, and speaker coordination. Multi-party conversations provide a realistic setting for studying these behaviors, yet existing Mandarin conversational corpora often lack synchronized participant-level speech tracks and comprehensive annotations. In this work, we introduce SmoothConv and DuplexConv, two complementary Mandarin multi-party conversational speech corpora totaling 2,100 hours. SmoothConv provides human-verified conversations for reliable analysis and evaluation, while DuplexConv offers large-scale automatically annotated conversations through a scalable pipeline for model training. Both corpora provide synchronized participant-level speech tracks and multi-dimensional fine-grained annotations. We further release the SmoothConv Benchmark and evaluate these resources on speech separation, multi-speaker automatic speech recognition (MSASR), and turn detection tasks. Experimental results demonstrate the utility of the proposed resources for multi-party speech interaction modeling. The datasets, benchmark, and related resources are publicly available.
