+## Introduction
+
+Existing audio language models typically rely on task-specific fine-tuning to accomplish particular audio tasks. In contrast, humans are able to generalize to new audio tasks with only a few examples or simple instructions. GPT-3 has shown that scaling next-token prediction pretraining enables strong generalization capabilities in text, and we believe this paradigm is equally applicable to the audio domain. By scaling MiMo-Audio's pretraining data to over one hundred million of hours, we observe the emergence of few-shot learning capabilities across a diverse set of audio tasks. We develop a systematic evaluation of these capabilities and find that MiMo-Audio-7B-Base achieves SOTA performance on both speech intelligence and audio understanding benchmarks among open-source models. Beyond standard metrics, MiMo-Audio-7B-Base generalizes to tasks absent from its training data, such as voice conversion, style transfer, and speech editing. MiMo-Audio-7B-Base also demonstrates powerful speech continuation capabilities, capable of generating highly realistic talk shows, recitations, livestreaming and debates. At the post-training stage, we curate a diverse instruction-tuning corpus and introduce thinking mechanisms into both audio understanding and generation. MiMo-Audio-7B-Instruct achieves open-source SOTA on audio understanding benchmarks, spoken dialogue benchmarks and instruct-TTS evaluations, approaching or surpassing closed-source models.

+## Architecture
+### MiMo-Audio-Tokenizer
+MiMo-Audio-Tokenizer is a 1.2B-parameter Transformer operating at 25 Hz. It employs an eight-layer RVQ stack to generate 200 tokens per second. By jointly optimizing semantic and reconstruction objectives, we train MiMo-Audio-Tokenizer from scratch on a 10-million-hour corpus, achieving superior reconstruction quality and facilitating downstream language modeling.

+  <img width="95%" src="https://github.com/XiaomiMiMo/MiMo-Audio/blob/main/assets/tokenizer.png?raw=true">
+</p>
+
+MiMo-Audio couples a patch encoder, an LLM, and a patch decoder to improve modeling efficiency for high-rate sequences and bridge the length mismatch between speech and text. The patch encoder aggregates four consecutive time steps of RVQ tokens into a single patch, downsampling the sequence to a 6.25 Hz representation for the LLM. The patch decoder autoregressively generates the full 25 Hz RVQ token sequence via a delayed-generation scheme.
