• Authors: Maryam Qamar Butt and Anis Ur Rahman
• Abstract summary: This work aims to provide a generic audio/video saliency model augmenting a visual saliency map with an audio saliency map computed by synchronizing low-level audio and visual features. The proposed model was evaluated using different criteria against eye fixations data for a publicly available DIEM video dataset.

• Abstract: Substantial research has been done in saliency modeling to develop intelligent machines that can perceive and interpret their surroundings. But existing models treat videos as merely image sequences excluding any audio information, unable to cope with inherently varying content. Based on the hypothesis that an audiovisual saliency model will be an improvement over traditional saliency models for natural uncategorized videos, this work aims to provide a generic audio/video saliency model augmenting a visual saliency map with an audio saliency map computed by synchronizing low-level audio and visual features. The proposed model was evaluated using different criteria against eye fixations data for a publicly available DIEM video dataset. The results show that the model outperformed two state-of-the-art visual saliency models.

  Video and audio content creation serves as the core technique for the movie industry and professional users. Existing diffusion-based methods tackle video and audio generation separately, which hinders the technique transfer from academia to industry. In this work, we aim at filling the gap, with a carefully designed optimization-based framework for cross-visual-audio and joint-visual-audio generation.

  We consider the task of generating diverse and realistic videos guided by natural audio samples from a wide variety of semantic classes. We utilize an existing text-conditioned video generation model and a pre-trained audio encoder model. We validate our method extensively on three datasets demonstrating significant semantic diversity of audio-video samples.

  We propose the AV-SUPERB benchmark that enables general-purpose evaluation of unimodal audio/visual and bimodal fusion representations. We evaluate 5 recent self-supervised models and show that none of these models generalize to all tasks. We show that representations may be improved with intermediate-task fine-tuning and audio event classification with AudioSet serves as a strong intermediate task.

  We construct the first fine-grained audible video description benchmark (FAVDBench) For each video clip, we first provide a one-sentence summary of the video, followed by 4-6 sentences describing the visual details and 1-2 audio-related descriptions at the end. We demonstrate that employing fine-grained video descriptions can create more intricate videos than using captions.

  We propose a method for end-to-end speech-driven video editing using a denoising diffusion model. We show this is possible by conditioning a denoising diffusion model on audio mel spectral features to generate synchronised facial motion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to demonstrate and validate the feasibility of applying end-to-end denoising diffusion models to the task of audio-driven video editing.

  We present results from two experiments: efficacy study of single features on the task, and an ablation study where we leave one feature out at a time. For the video summarization task, our results indicate that the visual features carry most information, and including audiovisual features improves over visual-only information. Results indicate that we can transfer knowledge from the video summarization task to a model trained specifically for the task of highlight detection.
