• Abstract: Visual sound source separation aims at identifying sound components from a given sound mixture with the presence of visual cues. Prior works have demonstrated impressive results, but with the expense of large multi-stage architectures and complex data representations (e.g. optical flow trajectories). In contrast, we study simple yet efficient models for visual sound separation using only a single video frame. Furthermore, our models are able to exploit the information of the sound source category in the separation process. To this end, we propose two models where we assume that i) the category labels are available at the training time, or ii) we know if the training sample pairs are from the same or different category. The experiments with the MUSIC dataset show that our model obtains comparable or better performance compared to several recent baseline methods.

  We introduce the Open-Vocabulary Audio-Visual Event localization problem. This problem requires localizing audio-visual events and predicting explicit categories for both seen and unseen data at inference. We propose the OV-AVEBench dataset, comprising 24,800 videos across 67 real-life audio-visual scenes.

We propose a simple yet effective model that only relies on feed-forward neural networks. Our framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on VGGSound-GZSL, UCF-GZSL, and ActivityNet-GZSL.

  DAVIS is a Diffusion-based Audio-VIsual Separation framework. It synthesizes separated sounds directly from Gaussian noise, conditioned on both the audio mixture and the visual information. We compare DAVIS to existing state-of-the-art discriminative audio-visual separation methods on the AVE and MUSIC datasets.

  Visually-guided sound source separation consists of three parts: visual feature extraction, multimodal feature fusion, and sound signal processing. This paper presents audio-visual predictive coding (AVPC) to tackle this task in parameter harmonizing and more effective manner. In addition, we develop a valid self-supervised learning strategy for AVPC via co-predicting two audio-visual representations of the same sound source.

  We propose to approach text-queried universal sound separation by using only unlabeled data. The proposed CLIPSep model first encodes the input query into a query vector using the contrastive language-image pretraining (CLIP) model. While the model is trained on image-audio pairs extracted from unlabeled videos, at test time we can instead query the model with text inputs in a zero-shot setting.

  We propose a three-component pipeline to train a universal audio source separator from a large, but weakly-labeled dataset: AudioSet. Our approach uses a single model for source separation of multiple sound types, and relies solely on weakly-labeled data for training. The proposed audio separator can be used in a zero-shot setting, learning to separate types of audio sources that were never seen in training.

• Visual Scene Graphs for Audio Source Separation [65.47212419514761]
  State-of-the-art approaches for visually-guided audio source separation typically assume sources that have characteristic sounds, such as musical instruments. We propose Audio Visual Scene Graph Segmenter (AVSGS), a novel deep learning model that embeds the visual structure of the scene as a graph and segments this graph into subgraphs. Our pipeline is trained end-to-end via a self-supervised task consisting of separating audio sources using the visual graph from artificially mixed sounds.

Our architecture can be learned in an end-to-end manner and requires no additional supervision or bounding box proposals.
