AV-SAM: Segment Anything Model Meets Audio-Visual Localization and Segmentation

원문 초록

Segment Anything Model (SAM) has recently shown its powerful effectiveness in visual segmentation tasks. However, there is less exploration concerning how SAM works on audio-visual tasks, such as visual sound localization and segmentation. In this work, we propose a simple yet effective audio-visual localization and segmentation framework based on the Segment Anything Model, namely AV-SAM, that can generate sounding object masks corresponding to the audio. Specifically, our AV-SAM simply leverages pixel-wise audio-visual fusion across audio features and visual features from the pre-trained image encoder in SAM to aggregate cross-modal representations. Then, the aggregated cross-modal features are fed into the prompt encoder and mask decoder to generate the final audio-visual segmentation masks. We conduct extensive experiments on Flickr-SoundNet and AVSBench datasets. The results demonstrate that the proposed AV-SAM can achieve competitive performance on sounding object localization and segmentation.
