We present VoxCPM2, a https://info.arxiv.org/help/prep#abstractsfully open-source multilingual and controllable speech generation foundation model that extends the hierarchical diffusion-autoregressive modeling paradigm of VoxCPM. VoxCPM2 advances the framework in three key dimensions: (i) capability, by unifying 30 languages, 9 Chinese dialects, natural-language voice design, style-controllable voice cloning, and high-fidelity continuation cloning within a single backbone; (ii) quality, through an asymmetric AudioVAE that encodes at 16 kHz and reconstructs at 48 kHz, enabling implicit super-resolution with high encoding efficiency; and (iii) scale, by jointly scaling the model to 2B parameters and the training data to over 2 million hours of multilingual speech. To support these diverse capabilities within one model, we introduce a unified sequence organization that expresses all generation modes through different arrangements of the same input building blocks, allowing joint training under a single set of parameters and objective. VoxCPM2 achieves state-of-the-art or competitive performance on public zero-shot and instruction-following TTS benchmarks. On our internal 30-language evaluation set, it attains an average WER of 1.68%. These results demonstrate that hierarchical continuous-latent modeling, without relying on any external discrete speech tokenizer, offers a viable and powerful foundation for large-scale multilingual and controllable speech generation. The model weights, fine-tuning code, and inference tools are publicly released under the Apache 2.0 license to foster community research and development.

Polyphonic music generation is still a challenge direction due to its correct between generating melody and harmony. Most of the previous studies used RNN-based models. However, the RNN-based models are hard to establish the relationship between long-distance notes. In this paper, we propose a polyphonic music generation neural network named Choir Transformer[ https://github.com/Zjy0401/choir-transformer], with relative positional attention to better model the structure of music. We also proposed a music representation suitable for polyphonic music generation. The performance of Choir Transformer surpasses the previous state-of-the-art accuracy of 4.06%. We also measures the harmony metrics of polyphonic music. Experiments show that the harmony metrics are close to the music of Bach. In practical application, the generated melody and rhythm can be adjusted according to the specified input, with different styles of music like folk music or pop music and so on.

This paper explores the modeling method of polyphonic music sequence. Due to the great potential of Transformer models in music generation, controllable music generation is receiving more attention. In the task of polyphonic music, current controllable generation research focuses on controlling the generation of chords, but lacks precise adjustment for the controllable generation of choral music textures. This paper proposed Condition Choir Transformer (CoCoFormer) which controls the output of the model by controlling the chord and rhythm inputs at a fine-grained level. In this paper, the self-supervised method improves the loss function and performs joint training through conditional control input and unconditional input training. In order to alleviate the lack of diversity on generated samples caused by the teacher forcing training, this paper added an adversarial training method. CoCoFormer enhances model performance with explicit and implicit inputs to chords and rhythms. In this paper, the experiments proves that CoCoFormer has reached the current better level than current models. On the premise of specifying the polyphonic music texture, the same melody can also be generated in a variety of ways.
