• Abstract summary: Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) are nowadays used to represent multimedia signals across various real-life applications, including image super-resolution, image compression, or 3D rendering. Existing methods that leverage INRs are predominantly focused on visual data, as their application to other modalities, such as audio, is nontrivial due to the inductive biases present in architectural attributes of image-based INR models. We introduce HyperSound, the first meta-learning approach to produce INRs for audio samples that leverages hypernetworks to generalize beyond samples observed in training. Our approach reconstructs audio samples with quality comparable to other state

• Abstract: Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) are nowadays used to represent multimedia signals across various real-life applications, including image super-resolution, image compression, or 3D rendering. Existing methods that leverage INRs are predominantly focused on visual data, as their application to other modalities, such as audio, is nontrivial due to the inductive biases present in architectural attributes of image-based INR models. To address this limitation, we introduce HyperSound, the first meta-learning approach to produce INRs for audio samples that leverages hypernetworks to generalize beyond samples observed in training. Our approach reconstructs audio samples with quality comparable to other state-of-the-art models and provides a viable alternative to contemporary sound representations used in deep neural networks for audio processing, such as spectrograms.

  view acoustic synthesis aims to render audio at any target viewpoint, given a mono audio emitted by a sound source at a 3D scene. Existing methods have proposed NeRF-based implicit models to exploit visual cues as a condition for synthesizing audio. We propose a novel Audio-Visual Gaussian Splatting (AV-GS) model to characterize the entire scene environment. Experiments validate the superiority of our AV-GS over existing alternatives on the real-world RWAS and simulation-based SoundSpaces datasets.

  Deep generative models can generate high-fidelity audio conditioned on various types of representations. These models are prone to generate audible artifacts when the conditioning is flawed or imperfect. We propose a high-fidelity multi-band diffusion-based framework that generates any type of audio modality from low-bitrate discrete representations.

Experiments demonstrate the superiority of our model in both settings with respect to various audio-only and audio-visual baselines.

After obtaining a dataset of such latent representations, we directly optimise the rate/distortion trade-off in a modality-agnostic space using neural compression.
