Adversarial-Metric Learning for Audio-Visual Cross-Modal Matching

원문 초록

Audio-visual matching aims to learn the intrinsic correspondence between image and audio clip. Existing works mainly concentrate on learning discriminative features, while ignore the cross-modal heterogeneous issue between audio and visual modalities. To deal with this issue, we propose a novel Adversarial-Metric Learning (AML) model for audio-visual matching. AML aims to generate a modality-independent representation for each person in each modality via adversarial learning, while simultaneously learns a robust similarity measure for cross-modality matching via metric learning. By integrating the discriminative modality-independent representation and robust cross-modality metric learning into an end-to-end trainable deep network, AML can overcome the heterogeneous issue with promising performance for audio-visual matching. Experiments on the various audio-visual learning tasks, including audio-visual matching, audio-visual verification and audio-visual retrieval on benchmark dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed AML model. The implementation codes are available on https://github.com/MLanHu/AML .
