AVENUE: Audio-Video EditiNg Understanding and Evaluation

AVENUE is a new benchmark and evaluation framework for audio‑video editing that includes 1,291 source clips and 7,957 editing instructions covering audio‑targeted, video‑targeted, and coupled edits. It introduces a sample‑specific, modality‑aware evaluation that specifies the intended change and the content that must remain unchanged. The study applies this framework to joint, sequential, and separate editing models, revealing that existing models often alter unintended modalities, highlighting a key challenge in controllable AV editing.

OmniEdit-Bench: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Instruction-based Video Editing

OmniEdit-Bench introduces a comprehensive benchmark for instruction-based video editing (IVE), addressing limitations of existing datasets by covering spatial, temporal, audio, and reference-based editing tasks and distinguishing explicit from implicit instructions. The evaluation framework assesses editing quality across accuracy, preservation, realism, and consistency, using human judgments and vision-language models, and incorporates an accuracy-aware penalty to ensure instruction fidelity. Experiments reveal that current IVE models perform poorly, highlighting the need for improved methods.

A Dual-Transformer for Multi-Camera View Recommendation

The paper introduces a Dual-Transformer architecture with Cross-Attention for multi-camera view recommendation, achieving a 56.60% Precision@0.5 on the TVMCE dataset, surpassing the previous best of 37.16%. The model separates temporal encoding of past frames from candidate view querying, and an ablation study shows the SwinV2 backbone yields 69.65% Precision@0.5. Fine‑tuning with as little as 20% of a target video improves precision, suggesting efficient personalization for specific editing styles.

Evaluating Music Context Preservation: A Multi-facet Framework for Music Editing Systems

The paper introduces MuseCPEval, the first comprehensive framework for assessing Music Context Preservation (MuseCP) in music editing systems. It defines four categories of music facets and provides fine‑grained metrics to detect subtle changes during editing tasks such as timbre transfer, instrument substitution, and genre transformation. The authors validate the metrics objectively and through a human study, and demonstrate their practical use in evaluating diverse editing systems, offering insights into each system’s strengths and limitations.

Synthesis and editing of multi-instrument audio mixtures using scalar-quantised latents with MIDI Span conditioning

SpanSynth-Edit is a flow‑matching model that enables MIDI‑guided synthesis and editing of multi‑instrument audio mixtures using low‑frame‑rate scalar‑quantised latents. It encodes instrument‑labelled note lifecycles as unordered event sets, pools them into a conditioning vector per audio‑latent frame, and uses contextual audio for instrument‑specific timbre guidance. The model supports editing by resynthesising target regions from revised MIDI and demonstrates competitive performance on single‑ and multi‑instrument benchmarks, including within‑frame onset control.
