We introduce NemotronLabs VoiceChat, an open full-duplex speech-to-speech model with native tool-calling capabilities. NemotronLabs VoiceChat combines a streaming speech encoder and decoder-only language model with parallel specialized output streams for agent text and…

Electrocardiograms (ECGs) carry subject-specific patterns enabling reliable individual discrimination, forming the basis of ECG biometrics. Beyond authentication, this paradigm holds significant potential to secure sensitive cardiac data and to serve as a pretext task in…

Masked diffusions are popular generative models for discrete distributions. Unlike standard autoregressive sampling, they reveal several coordinates in parallel, approximating each block's joint conditional law by a product of one-coordinate conditionals. The resulting…

Learning to defer asks a predictive system when to act autonomously and when to defer to a human expert. Population-adaptive deferral extends this problem to unseen experts using a small context set of expert behavior. Neural context encoders such as L2D-Pop can be…
