Efficiently Adapting Spoken Language Models for the Singaporean Context
arXiv:2607.10092v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spoken language models (SLMs) unify speech perception and reasoning, but adapting them to sensitive domains is underexplored, especially when the original training data is inaccessible and the use case demands multilingual, spoken-query interaction. We adapt an open-source SLM to the Singaporean Home Team context across five speech tasks in Singapore's four official languages, combining LoRA fine-tuning, a surrogate text-QA dataset that guards against catastrophic forgetting, and a multi-task objective that adapts the CoBa reweighting scheme to

Mistral AI Releases Robostral Navigate: An 8B Model Enabling Robots to Navigate Complex Environments Using a Single RGB Camera
Mistral AI introduced Robostral Navigate, an 8B embodied navigation model. It moves robots from a plain-language instruction using only a single RGB camera, with no LiDAR or depth sensors. The model reaches 76.6% success on R2R-CE validation unseen through a pointing method, prefix-caching training, and CISPO online reinforcement learning.
