State-of-the-art Active Speaker Detection (ASD) approaches heavily rely on audio and facial features to perform, which is not a sustainable approach in wild scenarios. Although these methods achieve good results in the standard…

Audiovisual active speaker detection (ASD) addresses the task of determining the speech activity of a candidate speaker given acoustic and visual data. Typically, systems model the temporal correspondence of audiovisual cues, such as the…

Audiovisual active speaker detection (ASD) is conventionally performed by modelling the temporal synchronisation of acoustic and visual speech cues. In egocentric recordings, however, the efficacy of synchronisation-based methods is…

The objective of this work is speaker diarisation of speech recordings 'in the wild'. The ability to determine speech segments is a crucial part of diarisation systems, accounting for a large proportion of errors. In this paper, we present…

Audio-visual active speaker detection (AV-ASD) aims to identify which visible face is speaking in a scene with one or more persons. Most existing AV-ASD methods prioritize capturing speech-lip correspondence. However, there is a noticeable…

Recognizing speaking in humans is a central task towards understanding social interactions. Ideally, speaking would be detected from individual voice recordings, as done previously for meeting scenarios. However, individual voice recordings…

The goal of this work is Active Speaker Detection (ASD), a task to determine whether a person is speaking or not in a series of video frames. Previous works have dealt with the task by exploring network architectures while learning…

This paper delves into the challenging task of Active Speaker Detection (ASD), where the system needs to determine in real-time whether a person is speaking or not in a series of video frames. While previous works have made significant…

Meetings are a common activity in professional contexts, and it remains challenging to endow vocal assistants with advanced functionalities to facilitate meeting management. In this context, a task like active speaker detection can provide…

Active speaker detection requires a solid integration of multi-modal cues. While individual modalities can approximate a solution, accurate predictions can only be achieved by explicitly fusing the audio and visual features and modeling…

Active speaker detection is a challenging task in audio-visual scenario understanding, which aims to detect who is speaking in one or more speakers scenarios. This task has received extensive attention as it is crucial in applications such…

An objective understanding of media depictions, such as inclusive portrayals of how much someone is heard and seen on screen such as in film and television, requires the machines to discern automatically who, when, how, and where someone is…

Target speaker extraction aims to extract the speech of a specific speaker from a multi-talker mixture as specified by an auxiliary reference. Most studies focus on the scenario where the target speech is highly overlapped with the…

The goal of this work is to automatically determine whether and when a word of interest is spoken by a talking face, with or without the audio. We propose a zero-shot method suitable for in the wild videos. Our key contributions are: (1) a…

The goal of this work is to recognise phrases and sentences being spoken by a talking face, with or without the audio. Unlike previous works that have focussed on recognising a limited number of words or phrases, we tackle lip reading as an…

This paper addresses the issue of active speaker detection (ASD) in noisy environments and formulates a robust active speaker detection (rASD) problem. Existing ASD approaches leverage both audio and visual modalities, but non-speech sounds…

Active Speaker Detection (ASD) aims to identify who is speaking in each frame of a video. ASD reasons from audio and visual information from two contexts: long-term intra-speaker context and short-term inter-speaker context. Long-term…

Conventional audio-visual approaches for active speaker detection (ASD) typically rely on visually pre-extracted face tracks and the corresponding single-channel audio to find the speaker in a video. Therefore, they tend to fail every time…

State-of-the-art Active Speaker Detection (ASD) approaches mainly use audio and facial features as input. However, the main hypothesis in this paper is that body dynamics is also highly correlated to "speaking" (and "listening") actions and…

Dialogue models falter in noisy, multi-speaker environments, often producing irrelevant responses and awkward turn-taking. We present AV-Dialog, the first multimodal dialog framework that uses both audio and visual cues to track the target…
