How Do Novice Describers Edit AI Drafts? The Role of Draft Quality in Audio Description Authoring

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The study examines how the quality of AI-generated audio description drafts influences the editing process by novice describers. Using the GenAD pipeline and RefineAD interface, researchers found that higher-quality drafts significantly reduced completion time and cognitive load, while low-quality drafts offered only modest benefits. The results suggest a minimum quality threshold that depends on visual complexity, proposing a design principle that AI assistance should meet a content‑specific quality standard to be effective.

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.
