SAM Audio Judge: A Unified Multimodal Framework for Perceptual Evaluation of Audio Separation
Helin Wang, Bowen Shi, Andros Tjandra +6
The performance evaluation remains a complex challenge in audio separation, and existing evaluation metrics are often misaligned with human perception, course-grained, relying on g…
Pushing the Frontier of Audiovisual Perception with Large-Scale Multimodal Correspondence Learning
Apoorv Vyas, Heng-Jui Chang, Cheng-Fu Yang +9
We introduce Perception Encoder Audiovisual, PE-AV, a new family of encoders for audio and video understanding trained with scaled contrastive learning. Built on PE, PE-AV makes se…
SAM Audio: Segment Anything in Audio
Bowen Shi, Andros Tjandra, John Hoffman +11
General audio source separation is a key capability for multimodal AI systems that can perceive and reason about sound. Despite substantial progress in recent years, existing separ…
MR-FlowDPO: Multi-Reward Direct Preference Optimization for Flow-Matching Text-to-Music Generation
Alon Ziv, Sanyuan Chen, Andros Tjandra +3
A key challenge in music generation models is their lack of direct alignment with human preferences, as music evaluation is inherently subjective and varies widely across individua…
The AudioMOS Challenge 2025
Wen-Chin Huang, Hui Wang, Cheng Liu +6
This is the summary paper for the AudioMOS Challenge 2025, the very first challenge for automatic subjective quality prediction for synthetic audio. The challenge consists of three…
Audiobox TTA-RAG: Improving Zero-Shot and Few-Shot Text-To-Audio with Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Mu Yang, Bowen Shi, Matthew Le +2
This work focuses on improving Text-To-Audio (TTA) generation on zero-shot and few-shot settings (i.e. generating unseen or uncommon audio events). Inspired by the success of Retri…
