Examples: audio before red line = ground-truth prompt; after = AuriStream’s prediction, visualized in the time-frequency cochleagram space.

AuriStream shows that causal prediction over short audio chunks (cochlear tokens) is enough to generate meaningful sentence continuations!

Humans largely learn language through speech. In contrast, most LLMs learn from pre-tokenized text.

In our #Interspeech2025 paper, we introduce AuriStream: a simple, causal model that learns phoneme, word & semantic information from speech.

What are the organizing dimensions of language processing?

We show that voxel responses during comprehension are organized along 2 main axes: processing difficulty & meaning abstractness—revealing an interpretable, topographic representational basis for language processing shared across individuals
