The images and sounds that we perceive undergo subtle but geometrically consistent changes as we rotate our heads. In this paper, we use these cues to solve a problem we call Sound Localization from Motion (SLfM): jointly estimating camera…
Audio super resolution aims to predict the missing high resolution components of the low resolution audio signals. While audio in nature is a continuous signal, current approaches treat it as discrete data (i.e., input is defined on…

Our brains combine vision and hearing to create a more elaborate interpretation of the world. When the visual input is insufficient, a rich panoply of sounds can be used to describe our surroundings. Since more than 1,000 hours of videos…
Audio-based automatic speech recognition (ASR) degrades significantly in noisy environments and is particularly vulnerable to interfering speech, as the model cannot determine which speaker to transcribe. Audio-visual speech recognition…
Visual sound localization is a typical and challenging problem that predicts the location of objects corresponding to the sound source in a video. Previous methods mainly used the audio-visual association between global audio and one-scale…
