New Mamba-based architecture Samba advances audio-visual navigation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced Samba, a novel hybrid Mamba architecture designed for audio-visual navigation tasks. Samba replaces traditional GRUs with an adaptive selection-enabled Mamba State Encoder (M-SE) for temporal aggregation and incorporates an Audio Mamba Encoder (AME) to better capture long-range dependencies in spectrograms. Experiments on the Matterport3D and Replica datasets show Samba significantly improves navigation success rates compared to existing state-of-the-art models, offering enhanced embodied representation capabilities at a reduced computational cost.
