🎙️ Real-Time Conversational Voice Agent, Turn-Taking, Full-Duplex & Prosody SFT/DPO Dataset (2026)
This repository contains the 100-Sample Production Teaser for the Real-Time Conversational Voice Agent & Full-Duplex Prosody Suite (2026) by BeatsProm AI Research Lab.
The dataset is engineered to train open-weights language models (Qwen-2.5-Audio, Llama-3.1-Voice, Moshi, Mini-Omni, Whisper-LLM) into ultra-low latency, real-time conversational voice agents featuring sub-150ms barge-in interruption yielding, active listening backchanneling cues ([mm-hmm], [uh-huh]), complex condition parsing, and expressive SSML prosody markup.
🛠️ PRODUCTION INTEGRATION GUARDRAILS & DEPLOYMENT RULES:
To ensure seamless enterprise deployment, machine learning engineers should observe the following production architecture rules:
- TTS Vocoder & SSML Middleware Rule:
- Output tags such as
<prosody pitch="+2st" rate="fast">,[pause 200ms], and[breath]are designed for Native Audio LLMs (Moshi, Mini-Omni, Qwen-Audio). When routing through traditional external TTS engines (Cartesia, ElevenLabs, OpenAI Audio), configure middleware regex to map these tags into native silence/pitch API parameters.
- Output tags such as
- Tool-Calling vs Voice-Output Decoupling:
- Security, transactional, and biometric verification events utilize formal
<tool_call>JSON schemas. In production telephony middleware, intercept these tokens to invoke external backend verification engines asynchronously rather than outputting plain-text credential confirmations.
- Security, transactional, and biometric verification events utilize formal
- Inference Pacing on Complex Negations:
- When handling multi-constraint user interruptions containing negations ("don't book morning, only direct flights"), ensure temperature is set to
0.2 - 0.4withmin_p = 0.05to prevent premature slot-filling reflexes.
- When handling multi-constraint user interruptions containing negations ("don't book morning, only direct flights"), ensure temperature is set to
🏛️ THE 20 INDEPENDENT VOICE ARCHETYPES:
- Full-Duplex Barge-in & Interruption Handling (Zero-latency yielding
<cutoff/>, complex negations & multi-slot tuple updates). - Multi-Party Meeting Cross-Talk Separation (Diarization and overlapping speaker mediation).
- Ultra-Low Latency Streaming (<150ms TTFA across 45+ equities, crypto, forex, and commodities).
- False Barge-in Rejection (Acoustic VAD filtering of coughs, dog barks, and ambient transients).
- Active Listening Backchannels (
[mm-hmm],[uh-huh],[I hear you]floor holding). - Socratic Cognitive Hesitation (
[pause 250ms],[thoughtful tone]for deep tradeoffs). - Spoken Self-Repair & Real-Time Revision (Seamless phonetic correction pivots).
- Vocal Pacing & Emotional Resonance Mirroring (Adaptive empathy and pitch modulation).
