New Hear to See method advances audio-visual instance segmentation

Researchers have developed a new method called Hear to See (H2S) to improve audio-visual instance segmentation. This technique addresses the challenges of matching overlapping acoustic events with visual instances and handling temporal misalignments between audio and visual signals. H2S utilizes an Acoustic-Semantic Projector to disentangle mixed audio and establish hierarchical correspondence, and an Asynchronous Dynamics Modulator that adaptively adjusts state transitions using audio-modulated Mamba for robust tracking.

    Hear to See: Discerning Stateful Listening for Audio-Visual Instance Segmentation

    arXiv:2608.03264v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio-visual instance segmentation (AVIS) requires accurately identifying and tracking individual sounding objects with pixel-level masks. Existing methods struggle to match overlapping acoustic events with visual instances and ha…
