arXiv:2606. 10738v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent multimodal large language models mainly process audio as monaural signals, thereby discarding the spatial cues contained in spatial audio for sound localization, spatial relation reasoning, and spatial scene understanding.
arXiv:2608. 09435v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding dynamic sound sources requires jointly determining what produces a sound, where the source is located, and how it moves over time.
arXiv:2606. 14141v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sound events are entities with semantic identities, locations, and trajectories, but current audio-language models usually reason about clips as global event content.
Recent Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) have achieved remarkable progress in audio perceptual tasks across individual acoustic layers, including speech, sound, and music. However, existing benchmarks predominantly evaluate these layers in isolation, overlooking the complex contextual relationships that arise when multiple acoustic sources co-occur in real-world auditory scenes.
Understanding dynamic sound sources requires jointly determining what produces a sound, where the source is located, and how it moves over time. Yet existing audio-language models often represent clips as global acoustic events, while vision-language models lack the spatial audio cues needed to localize and track individual sources.
arXiv:2607. 24786v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Weak supervision sets a practical regime for audio-visual sound source localization as dense spatial annotations are costly to obtain at scale.
