Researchers have introduced EchoFoley, a new task and benchmark for generating sound effects in videos with fine-grained control. The system addresses limitations in existing video-to-audio models, such as visual dominance and weak instruction following. EchoFoley-6k, a dataset of over 6,000 video-instruction-annotation triplets, supports this task. The proposed EchoVidia framework, utilizing a slow-fast thinking strategy, reportedly surpasses current models in controllability and perceptual quality. AI
