ModeratorLM: Role-conditioned turn-taking for multi-party voice agents with 40%+ precision gains

Researchers introduce ModeratorLM, a voice agent system that conditions turn-taking behavior on an explicitly assigned conversational role in multi-party settings, built on a streaming speech LLM. A reasoning-augmented variant adds chain-of-thought over conversational context. Evaluated on real-world meeting data and the new RolePlayConv synthetic dataset, the system achieves over 40% improvement in turn-taking precision and 70% in recall while reducing false-positive interruptions versus non-role-conditioned baselines.
