• Authors: Yoav Shalev, Lior Wolf
• Abstract summary: We study the problem of syncing the lip movement in a video with the audio stream. Our solution finds an optimal alignment using a dual-domain recurrent neural network. As an application, we demonstrate our ability to robustly align text-to-speech generated audio with an existing video stream.

• Abstract: We study the problem of syncing the lip movement in a video with the audio stream. Our solution finds an optimal alignment using a dual-domain recurrent neural network that is trained on synthetic data we generate by dropping and duplicating video frames. Once the alignment is found, we modify the video in order to sync the two sources. Our method is shown to greatly outperform the literature methods on a variety of existing and new benchmarks. As an application, we demonstrate our ability to robustly align text-to-speech generated audio with an existing video stream. Our code and samples are available at https://github.com/itsyoavshalev/End-to-End-Lip-Synchronization-with-a-Temporal-AutoEncoder.

  We study Neural Foley, the automatic generation of high-quality sound effects synchronizing with videos, enabling an immersive audio-visual experience. We propose FoleyCrafter, a novel framework that leverages a pre-trained text-to-audio model to ensure high-quality audio generation. One notable advantage of FoleyCrafter is its compatibility with text prompts, enabling the use of text descriptions to achieve controllable and diverse video-to-audio generation according to user intents.

  Video-to-speech synthesis is the task of reconstructing the speech signal from a silent video of a speaker. In this paper we propose to train encoder-decoder models on more than 3,500 hours of audio data at 24kHz. We then use the pre-trained decoders to initialize the audio decoders for the video-to-speech synthesis task.

  The objective of this paper is audio-visual synchronisation of general videos 'in the wild' We make four contributions: (i) in order to handle longer temporal sequences required for sparse synchronisation signals, we design a multi-modal transformer model that employs'selectors' We identify artefacts that can arise from the compression codecs used for audio and video and can be used by audio-visual models in training to artificially solve the synchronisation task.

  Real-time denoising algorithms are typically adopted on the user device to remove the noise involved during the shooting and transmission of video streams. Recent multi-output inference works propagate the bidirectional temporal feature with a parallel or recurrent framework. We propose a Bidirectional Streaming Video Denoising framework, to achieve high-fidelity real-time denoising for streaming videos with both past and future temporal receptive fields.
