Researchers have developed a novel inference pipeline utilizing vLLM to unify audio understanding and generation tasks. This system addresses the challenges of high-throughput multimodal generation, particularly for speech language models that employ complex decoding strategies like AR+NAR or Multi-Token Prediction. The pipeline integrates an on-GPU acoustic decoder for end-to-end waveform synthesis and optimizes Classifier-Free Guidance to maintain approximately 80% of non-CFG throughput by co-scheduling conditional and unconditional requests.
