MSLM-S2ST: A Multitask Speech Language Model for Textless Speech-to-Speech Translation with Speaker Style Preservation

Understand

There have been emerging research interest and advances in speech-to-speech translation (S2ST), translating utterances from one language to another.

• This work proposes Multitask Speech Language Model (MSLM), which is a decoder-only speech language model trained in a multitask setting.
• Without reliance on text training data, our model is able to support multilingual S2ST with speaker style preserved.
