Rings like gold, thuds like wood! The sound we hear in a scene is shaped not only by the spatial layout of the environment but also by the materials of the objects and surfaces within it. For instance, a room with wooden walls will produce…

We propose a multimodal deep learning model for VR auralization that generates spatial room impulse responses (SRIRs) in real time to reconstruct scene-specific auditory perception. Employing SRIRs as the output reduces computational…

We address the problem of estimating room impulse responses (RIRs) in noisy, uncontrolled environments where non-stationary sounds such as speech or footsteps corrupt conventional deconvolution. We propose AnyRIR, a non-intrusive method…

Room impulse response (RIR), which measures the sound propagation within an environment, is critical for synthesizing high-fidelity audio for a given environment. Some prior work has proposed representing RIR as a neural field function of…

As deeper and more complex models are developed for the task of sound event localization and detection (SELD), the demand for annotated spatial audio data continues to increase. Annotating field recordings with 360$^{\circ}$ video takes…

An immersive acoustic experience enabled by spatial audio is just as crucial as the visual aspect in creating realistic virtual environments. However, existing methods for room impulse response estimation rely either on data-demanding…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) on multi-talker recordings is challenging. Current methods using 3D spatial data from multi-channel audio and visual cues focus mainly on direct waves from the target speaker, overlooking reflection wave…

Room Impulse Responses (RIRs) characterize acoustic environments and are crucial in multiple audio signal processing tasks. High-quality RIR estimates drive applications such as virtual microphones, sound source localization, augmented…

This paper introduces a shoebox room simulator able to systematically generate synthetic datasets of binaural room impulse responses (BRIRs) given an arbitrary set of head-related transfer functions (HRTFs). The evaluation of machine…

Data-driven acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) methods, predominantly trained on synthetic or constrained real-world datasets, encounter performance declines in unseen echo scenarios, especially in real environments where echo paths are not…

Recording and annotating real sound events for a sound event localization and detection (SELD) task is time consuming, and data augmentation techniques are often favored when the amount of data is limited. However, how to augment the…

In this paper we introduce StoRIR - a stochastic room impulse response generation method dedicated to audio data augmentation in machine learning applications. This technique, in contrary to geometrical methods like image-source or ray…

Room impulse response (RIR) generation remains a critical challenge for creating immersive virtual acoustic environments. Current methods suffer from two fundamental limitations: the scarcity of full-band RIR datasets and the inability of…

Room acoustics analysis plays a central role in architectural design, audio engineering, speech intelligibility assessment, and hearing research. Despite the availability of standardized metrics such as reverberation time, clarity, and…

Accurate and efficient simulation of room impulse responses is crucial for spatial audio applications. However, existing acoustic ray-tracing tools often operate as black boxes and only output impulse responses (IRs), providing limited…

Measuring the acoustic characteristics of a space is often done by capturing its impulse response (IR), a representation of how a full-range stimulus sound excites it. This work generates an IR from a single image, which can then be applied…

Prediction of room impulse responses (RIRs) is essential for room acoustics, spatial audio, and immersive applications, yet conventional simulations and measurements remain computationally expensive and time-consuming. This work proposes a…

Identifying locations of occupants is beneficial to energy management in buildings. A key observation in indoor environment is that distinct functional areas are typically controlled by separate HVAC and lighting systems and room level…

How would the sound in a studio change with a carpeted floor and acoustic tiles on the walls? We introduce the task of material-controlled acoustic profile generation, where, given an indoor scene with specific audio-visual characteristics,…
