The Silent Thought: Modeling Internal Cognition in Full-Duplex Spoken Dialogue Models via Latent Reasoning

arXiv:2603.17837v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: During conversational interactions, humans subconsciously engage in concurrent thinking while listening to a speaker. Although this internal cognitive processing may not always manifest as explicit linguistic structures, it is instrumental in formulating high-quality responses. Inspired by this cognitive phenomenon, we propose a novel Full-duplex LAtent and Internal Reasoning method named FLAIR that conducts latent thinking simultaneously with speech perception. Unlike conventional "thinking" mechanisms in NLP, which require post-hoc ge
