Listen Before You Speak: Response Planning from Listener Facial Reactions for Conversational Speech Generation· 先听后说：从听众面部反应规划对话语音生成

Conversational speech depends on dialogue context and the listener's immediately preceding behavior. We propose ReACT-TTS, a two-stage framework that uses a one-second pre-response listener facial sequence to plan the next utterance's emotion and prosody before speech realization. On a strict dyadic MELD protocol, Temporal conditioning yields higher mean macro-F1 and VAD concordance than Text-only across ten seeds, while accuracy remains essentially unchanged. Ablations show that temporal modeling performs best among the visual variants and that an explicit early-to-late difference is unnecessary; correct listener reactions also outperform cyclic mismatches on average. In a contextual-appropriateness study with 20 speech researchers, 76% of judgments prefer Temporal, 9% Text-only, and 15%
