This paper introduces Typhoon 2, a series of text and multimodal large language models optimized for the Thai language. The series includes models for text, vision, and audio. Typhoon2-Text builds on state-of-the-art open models, such as Llama 3 and Qwen2, and we perform continual pre-training on a mixture of English and Thai data. We employ post-training techniques to enhance Thai language performance while preserving the base models' original capabilities. We release text models across a range of sizes, from 1 to 70 billion parameters, available in both base and instruction-tuned variants. To guardrail text generation, we release Typhoon2-Safety, a classifier enhanced for Thai cultures and language. Typhoon2-Vision improves Thai document understanding while retaining general visual capabilities, such as image captioning. Typhoon2-Audio introduces an end-to-end speech-to-speech model architecture capable of processing audio, speech, and text inputs and generating both text and speech outputs.

  3. Mangosteen: An Open Thai Corpus for Language Model Pretraining

    cs.CL 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An open 47B-token Thai pre-training corpus and a Thai-adapted data cleaning pipeline, with ablations showing quality gains and an 8B model that improves on Thai benchmarks.

  4. Weakly Supervised Data Refinement and Flexible Sequence Compression for Efficient Thai LLM-based ASR

    cs.SD 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    EThai-ASR combines a self-refined Zipformer encoder with a Thai LLM and reports SOTA CER on Thai test sets plus a cosine-similarity frame pruning that gives 1.5-2.1x speedups in some modes.
