MIST: Multimodal Interactive Speech-based Tool-calling Conversational Assistants for Smart Homes

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2605.06897v1 Announce Type: cross The rise of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in the physical world necessitates voice-based interfaces capable of handling complex user experiences. While modern Large Language Models (LLMs) already nstrate strong tool-usage capabilities, modeling real-world IoT devices presents a difficult, understudied challenge which combines modeling spatiotemporal constraints with speech inputs, dynamic state tracking, and mixed-initiative interaction patterns.
