Towards Streaming Synchronized Spatial Audio Generation via Autoregressive Diffusion Transformer

Hugging Face Daily Papers Papers

Summary

SwanSphere proposes a unified streaming framework for high-fidelity spatial audio generation from panoramic videos and text prompts using causal autoregressive diffusion transformers and multimodal learning strategies, achieving superior performance in both video-to-spatial and text-to-spatial audio tasks.

Real-time and accurate spatial audio generation is pivotal for delivering an immersive experience. However, existing spatial audio synthesis technologies are often encumbered by a tradeoff between generation quality and high inference latency, as well as difficulty in capturing precise spatial information from multimodal inputs. To address these challenges, we propose SwanSphere, a unified streaming framework for high-fidelity spatial audio generation from panoramic videos and text prompts. SwanSphere mainly makes the following contributions: 1) We introduce a causal autoregressive diffusion transformer architecture that enables streaming high-quality spatial audio generation. 2) We design a Spatial Video-Audio Contrastive (SVAC) learning strategy to align the video encoder with the acoustic domain, and further employ a multi-objective online direct preference optimization (ODPO) scheme, resulting in strong spatial perception and robust multimodal spatial audio synthesis. 3) To alleviate the current scarcity of spatial audio datasets, we also develop an automated annotation pipeline for generating detailed spatial captions. Experimental results demonstrate that SwanSphere achieves superior performance in both video-to-spatial and text-to-spatial audio generation tasks. Demos can be found at: https://swanaigc.github.io.

Abstract

SwanSphere presents a unified streaming framework for high-fidelity spatial audio generation from panoramic videos and text prompts using causal autoregressive diffusion transformers and multimodal learning strategies.

Real-time and accuratespatial audio generationis pivotal for delivering an immersive experience. However, existing spatial audio synthesis technologies are often encumbered by a tradeoff between generation quality and high inference latency, as well as difficulty in capturing precise spatial information from multimodal inputs. To address these challenges, we propose SwanSphere, a unified streaming framework for high-fidelityspatial audio generationfrompanoramic videosandtext prompts. SwanSphere mainly makes the following contributions: 1) We introduce acausal autoregressive diffusion transformerarchitecture that enables streaming high-qualityspatial audio generation. 2) We design a Spatial Video-Audio Contrastive (SVAC) learning strategy to align the video encoder with the acoustic domain, and further employ amulti-objective online direct preference optimization(ODPO) scheme, resulting in strong spatial perception and robust multimodal spatial audio synthesis. 3) To alleviate the current scarcity of spatial audio datasets, we also develop anautomated annotation pipelinefor generating detailedspatial captions. Experimental results demonstrate that SwanSphere achieves superior performance in both video-to-spatial and text-to-spatial audio generationtasks. Demos can be found at: https://swanaigc.github.io.
