- Abstract: We propose a novel step-by-step video-to-audio generation method that sequentially produces individual audio tracks, each corresponding to a specific sound event in the video. Our approach mirrors traditional Foley workflows, aiming to capture all sound events induced by a given video comprehensively. Each generation step is formulated as a guided video-to-audio synthesis task, conditioned on a target text prompt and previously generated audio tracks. This design is inspired by the idea of concept negation from prior compositional generation frameworks. To enable this guided generation, we introduce a training framework that leverages pre-trained video-to-audio models and eliminates the need for specialized paired datasets, allowing training on more accessible data. Experimental results demonstrate that our method generates multiple semantically distinct audio tracks for a single input video, leading to higher-quality composite audio synthesis than existing baselines.

textbfThinkSound is a novel framework that leverages Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to enable stepwise, interactive audio generation and editing for videos.<n>Our approach decomposes the process into three complementary stages: semantically coherent, interactive object-centric refinement through precise user interactions, and targeted editing guided by natural language instructions.<n> Experiments demonstrate that ThinkSound achieves state-of-the-art performance in video-to-audio generation across both audio metrics and CoT metrics.

One of the most time-consuming steps when designing sound is synchronizing audio with video.
In video games and animations, no reference audio exists, requiring manual annotation of event timings from the video.
We propose a system to extract repetitive actions onsets from a video, which are then used to condition a diffusion model trained to generate a new synchronized sound effects audio track.

Adaptation [89.96013329530484]
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 investigate the effect of using video and audio inputs for video-to-speech synthesis during both training and inference.
In particular, we use pre-trained video-to-speech models to synthesize the missing speech signals and then train an audio-visual-to-speech synthesis model, using both the silent video and the synthesized speech as inputs, to predict the final reconstructed speech.

synthesis [64.86087257004883]
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.

We introduce a non-parametric approach for infinite video texture synthesis using a representation learned via contrastive learning.
We take inspiration from Video Textures, which showed that plausible new videos could be generated from a single one by stitching its frames together in a novel yet consistent order.
Our model outperforms baselines on human perceptual scores, can handle a diverse range of input videos, and can combine semantic and audio-visual cues in order to synthesize videos that synchronize well with an audio signal.
