• Abstract: Despite its widespread adoption as the prominent neural architecture, the Transformer has spurred several independent lines of work to address its limitations. One such approach is selective state space models, which have demonstrated promising results for language modelling. However, their feasibility for learning self-supervised, general-purpose audio representations is yet to be investigated. This work proposes Audio Mamba, a selective state space model for learning general-purpose audio representations from randomly masked spectrogram patches through self-supervision. Empirical results on ten diverse audio recognition downstream tasks show that the proposed models, pretrained on the AudioSet dataset, consistently outperform comparable self-supervised audio spectrogram transformer (SSAST) baselines by a considerable margin and demonstrate better performance in dataset size, sequence length and model size comparisons.

  Controlling stereo audio with spatial contexts remains challenging due to high data costs and unstable generative models. We first construct a large-scale, simulation-based, and GPT-assisted dataset, BEWO-1M, with abundant soundscapes and descriptions even including moving and multiple sources. By leveraging spatial guidance, our unified model achieves the objective of generating immersive and controllable spatial audio from text and image.

  multimodal generative modeling has created milestones in text-to-image and text-to-video generation.

We propose Make-An-Audio with a prompt-enhanced diffusion model that addresses these gaps.
