A Hybrid Mamba for Audio-Visual Navigation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 13110v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Since the paradigm centered on convolutional neural networks and recurrent architectures was established in 2020, the fundamental backbone networks for audio-visual navigation have undergone no essential changes for more than five years, making them inadequate to support efficient representation of dynamic multimodal sequences.

CTAN: Cycle-Temporal Attention Network for Embodied Audio-Visual Navigation

The paper introduces CTAN, a Cycle-Temporal Attention Network for audio‑visual embodied navigation. It proposes an Audio‑Visual Reconstruction Cross‑Attention module that uses bidirectional cycle‑consistency to strengthen spatial semantics across visual and acoustic modalities, and a Temporal Cross‑Modal Memory to fuse real‑time multimodal features with historical context. Experiments on Replica and Matterport3D show that CTAN outperforms prior methods in success rate, SPL, and scene navigation accuracy.

RAMamba-Net: A Reliability-Aware and Mamba-Based Multimodal Fusion Network for Auditory Attention Detection

RAMamba-Net is a new multimodal fusion network designed for auditory attention decoding (AAD) that combines EEG and electrooculography (EOG) signals. It uses a Mamba-enhanced band-aware convolutional Transformer to capture EEG band-specific patterns and long-range temporal dynamics, while a dual-branch encoder models EOG temporal and inter-channel dependencies. Cross‑modal attention and a reliability‑aware module estimate sample‑wise modality weights, improving fusion robustness and achieving a 5.76% accuracy gain over unimodal baselines on two AAD benchmarks.

BinauralVAE: Spatial Audio Reconstruction For World Models

BinauralVAE is an open‑source pipeline that reconstructs spatial audio using various Variational Autoencoder architectures, including complex‑valued variants, to learn latent representations of binaural signals. The project builds on realistic acoustic data from a simulated robot navigating an environment, providing a foundation for audio‑centric world models. It aims to map the causal link between navigational actions and their acoustic outcomes, positioning sound as a complementary modality for spatial awareness.
