Video Object Segmentation-Aware Audio Generation

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

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.

Vorch-Omni: Multi-Task Orchestration of Sight and Sound

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.

Semantic-Critical Regions for Video-to-Audio Generation

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.
