The paper introduces a new task called video object segmentation‑aware audio generation, which conditions sound synthesis on object‑level segmentation maps. It presents SAGANet, a multimodal generative model that uses visual segmentation masks, video, and textual cues to produce controllable audio for musical instruments, offering fine‑grained, visually localized control. The authors also release the Segmented Music Solos dataset of instrument performance videos with segmentation information to support this task and demonstrate that SAGANet outperforms current state‑of‑the‑art methods in controllable, high‑fidelity Foley synthesis.

Recent advances in generative video modeling have enabled diverse generation, reference-based synthesis, extension, and editing, but existing approaches often rely on fragmented task-specific models. A general model must distinguish heterogeneous target, source, and reference signals to determine what to generate, preserve, or use as guidance, while reducing interference among tasks.

The paper introduces SCR-V2A, a video-to-audio generation framework that focuses on Semantic-Critical Regions (SCRs)—localized visual cues directly related to sound events. SCR-V2A first identifies these regions via sound-related visual localization, then encodes them with an adapter-based dual visual encoder to produce a control representation that captures both global context and fine-grained sound evidence. This representation conditions an audio generation model, and experiments on in-domain and out-of-domain benchmarks show improved distribution matching and audio quality with few trainable parameters.

SCAPES is a lightweight, resource‑efficient generative model that synthesizes high‑fidelity environmental sounds with high‑level semantic control. It operates on the continuous latent manifold of a neural audio codec, using a segmentation strategy and a Continuous Normalizing Flow to model latent trajectories. A 36‑million‑parameter instance can be trained on limited, uncurated data with a single consumer‑grade GPU, achieving convergence in roughly twice the source audio duration and enabling smooth semantic interpolation.
