Zero-shot text-to-speech models can clone a speaker’s timbre from a short reference audio, but they also strongly inherit the speaking style present in the reference. As a result, synthesizing speech with a desired style often requires carefully selecting reference audio, which is impractical when only limited or mismatched references are available. While recent controllable TTS methods attempt to address this issue, they typically rely on absolute style targets and discrete textual prompts, and therefore do not support continuous and reference-relative style control. We propose ReStyle-TTS, a framework that enables continuous and reference-relative style control in zero-shot TTS. Our key insight is that effective style control requires first reducing the model’s implicit dependence on reference style before introducing explicit control mechanisms. To this end, we introduce Decoupled Classifier-Free Guidance (DCFG), which independently controls text and reference guidance, reducing reliance on reference style while preserving text fidelity. On top of this, we apply style-specific LoRAs together with Orthogonal LoRA Fusion to enable continuous and disentangled multi-attribute control, and introduce a Timbre Consistency Optimization module to mitigate timbre drift caused by weakened reference guidance. Experiments show that ReStyle-TTS enables user-friendly, continuous, and relative control over pitch, energy, and multiple emotions while maintaining intelligibility and speaker timbre, and performs robustly in challenging mismatched reference–target style scenarios. Code and data are available in supplementary materials.

Understanding long videos remains challenging due to the sparsity of visual evidence relevant to a given query. Prior work has explored program-based visual grounding, typically relying on executable programs generated by auxiliary large language models. However, when scaling to long videos, existing approaches face several critical limitations: (1) frame-centric vision modules are often insufficient for long video processing; (2) naively applying program-based reasoning to all queries incurs considerable computational overhead; and (3) errors arising from low-confidence predictions and imperfect program execution are difficult to recover from. To address these challenges, we propose VideoPro, a unified framework that enables VideoLLMs to adaptively reason over long videos and refine their predictions through executable programs. VideoPro first performs adaptive reasoning, dynamically determining whether a query can be resolved directly by the native VideoLLM or requires explicit multi-step program reasoning. For complex queries, the model decomposes the task into executable programs that invoke specialized vision modules for precise temporal and semantic grounding. To further improve robustness, VideoPro incorporates a self-refinement mechanism that leverages execution feedback and confidence signals to correct erroneous executions and refine low-confidence reasoning programs. By tightly integrating adaptive reasoning with self-refinement, VideoPro consistently outperforms prior methods across multiple long-video understanding benchmarks, yielding an average 6.7% improvement for Qwen3-VL-8B.
