\section{Results and Analysis}
\label{sec:results}
\subsection{Baselines}
The confirmatory comparison contains: an EgoSpeak reproduction; the frozen
Qwen2.5-Omni-3B global state $G$; matched LoRA/PEFT; $G$ plus recent local
audio; a parameter- and history-matched temporal local branch; and the proposed
audio--visible-person adapter. Qwen2.5-Omni-7B is a capacity-scaling control,
not a second paper storyline. \todo{Freeze all baseline implementations and
ensure the EgoSpeak comparison uses identical targets, split, causal validity,
and evaluation.}
\subsection{Main Comparison}
Table~\ref{tab:main} compares the proposed causal local audiovisual adapter
with an EgoSpeak reproduction, the frozen Qwen2.5-Omni-3B global state $G$,
matched PEFT, $G$ plus recent local audio, and a parameter- and history-matched
temporal local branch. Qwen2.5-Omni-7B is included only as a capacity-scaling
control. All methods use the same split, causal inputs, targets, and evaluation
protocol. Event thresholds are selected on training-side calibration data and
frozen before test evaluation. \todo{Freeze all baseline implementations and
verify identical targets, causal validity, and evaluation.}

\textbf{Information opportunity.}
On development Session~12, an analysis-only seed-0 oracle supplied perfectly
timed visible-other speech activity through an explicit non-deployable path.
Aggregate visible activity improved 0.2-s mAP by 6.97 points and ten-horizon
mean mAP by 2.91 points over matched global-plus-local-audio. Visibility-only
and one-second-delayed activity remained near audio, while per-person histories
did not outperform identity-shuffled histories. This motivates timely local
floor evidence, not participant identity. \todo{After seeds 1--2, report the
interval or remove the exact oracle numbers from the four-page paper.}
\textbf{Dense forecasting.}
The proposed local AV adapter improves 0.2-s mAP from
\todo{$X$ to $Y$} over the strongest matched baseline and improves
mean mAP by \todo{$Z$ points}.
The gain is largest at \todo{short prediction horizons / transition-adjacent
frames / specify actual observation}, indicating that local audiovisual
evidence primarily improves \todo{the interpretation supported by the data}.
\textbf{Main result.}
Table~\ref{tab:main} should establish one result: \todo{the selected local
adapter reduces multi-other false entry at matched valid-onset recall, retains
onset latency/yield behavior, improves dense forecasting, and recovers a
meaningful fraction of the oracle opportunity}. The 7B row should determine
whether \todo{capacity alone closes the gap or the adaptation structure remains
useful at larger scale}. No conclusion is drawn across all Omni families from
Qwen-only evidence.
\textbf{Floor-entry behavior.}
At matched valid-onset recall $R=0.8$, the proposed adapter reduces
multi-other false entries from \todo{$X$} to \todo{$Y$} FP/min
(\todo{$Z\%$ relative reduction}).
This reduction is obtained while \todo{maintaining / improving} onset latency
and yield recall.
Thus, the improvement cannot be explained solely by a more conservative
decision threshold.
\textbf{Comparison with adaptation baselines.}
Matched PEFT yields \todo{result}, whereas adding recent local audio alone
yields \todo{result}.
The parameter- and history-matched temporal branch achieves
\todo{result}.
The remaining gap between this control and the proposed adapter therefore
suggests that \todo{correctly timed audiovisual local evidence contributes
beyond additional temporal capacity}.
\todo{If this difference is not statistically supported, state instead that
the local temporal branch accounts for most of the gain.}
\subsection{Information Opportunity}
Before designing the deployable adapter, we measured whether local floor
information was useful at all using an analysis-only oracle.
The oracle receives perfectly timed visible-other speech activity through a
non-deployable pathway and is never used in the main comparison.
On development Session~12, aggregate visible activity improved 0.2-s mAP by
6.97 points and ten-horizon mean mAP by 2.91 points over the matched
global-plus-local-audio baseline.
In contrast, visibility alone and one-second-delayed activity remained close
to the audio baseline, while person-specific histories did not outperform
identity-shuffled histories.
These controls indicate that the useful signal is primarily
\emph{timely local floor evidence}, rather than participant identity or
static visibility.
The proposed adapter is therefore designed to approximate this information
using only causally available audiovisual observations.
\todo{After completing all seeds, report mean $\pm$ confidence interval here.
If the oracle effect is unstable, describe it qualitatively and omit the exact
numbers from the four-page version.}
\subsection{Mechanism Analysis}
To determine whether the gain arises from correctly aligned visual floor
evidence rather than additional parameters or generic visual context, we
evaluate the controls in Table~\ref{tab:ablation}.

\subsection{Scaling Control}
Increasing the frozen Omni backbone from 3B to 7B yields
\todo{$X$ points} in 0.2-s mAP and \todo{$Y$} FP/min at matched recall.
The proposed 3B adapter \todo{remains better than / approaches / is surpassed

This result suggests that \todo{architectural access to local causal evidence
provides a complementary benefit to backbone scaling}.
Because both backbones belong to the Qwen2.5-Omni family, we do not claim that
this conclusion generalizes to all omni-modal models.
\subsection{Limitations and Qualitative Analysis}
The results support \todo{precise supported claim}, but several limitations
remain.
First, \todo{EasyCom size/session diversity limitation}.
Second, the adapter relies on \todo{state the actual visible-person box or
tracking assumption}.
Third, \todo{failure condition: occlusion, overlapping speakers, rapid floor
exchange, etc.} remains challenging.
