Benchmarking Single-Factor Physical Video-to-Audio Generation

CVPR 2026

Generative video-to-audio (V2A) models produce highly plausible soundtracks, but it remains unclear whether they capture the underlying physical processes. Existing evaluations emphasize perceptual realism and overlook physical correctness under controlled interventions. In this paper, we introduce

Enhancing Virtual Try-On with Synthetic Pairs and Error-Aware Noise Scheduling

CVPR 2025poster

Given an isolated garment image in a canonical product view and a separate image of a person, the virtual try-on task aims to generate a new image of the person wearing the target garment.Prior virtual try-on works face two major challenges in achieving this goal: a) the paired (human, garment) trai…

Fugatto 1: Foundational Generative Audio Transformer Opus 1

ICLR 2025poster

Fugatto is a versatile audio synthesis and transformation model capable of following free-form text instructions with optional audio inputs. While large language models (LLMs) trained with text on a simple next-token prediction objective can learn to infer instructions directly from the data, models…

Collecting The Puzzle Pieces: Disentangled Self-Driven Human Pose Transfer by Permuting Textures

ICCV 2023poster

Human pose transfer synthesizes new view(s) of a person for a given pose. Recent work achieves this via self-reconstruction, which disentangles a person's pose and texture information by breaking down the person into several parts, then recombines them to reconstruct the person. However, this part-l…

High-Acoustic Fidelity Text To Speech Synthesis With Fine-Grained Control Of Speech Attributes

ICASSP 2023accepted

Recently developed neural-based TTS models have focused on robustness and finer control over acoustic features such as phoneme duration, energy, and F<inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0</inf>, allowing users to have some degree of control…

P-Flow: A Fast and Data-Efficient Zero-Shot TTS through Speech Prompting

NeurIPS 2023poster

While recent large-scale neural codec language models have shown significant improvement in zero-shot TTS by training on thousands of hours of data, they suffer from drawbacks such as a lack of robustness, slow sampling speed similar to previous autoregressive TTS methods, and reliance on pre-traine…

Vani: Very-Lightweight Accent-Controllable TTS for Native And Non-Native Speakers With Identity Preservation

ICASSP 2023accepted

We introduce VANI, a very lightweight multi-lingual accent controllable speech synthesis system. Our model builds upon disentanglement strategies proposed in RADMMM[1] and supports explicit control of accent, language, speaker and fine-grained F<inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xml…

One TTS Alignment to Rule Them All

ICASSP 2022accepted

Speech-to-text alignment is a critical component of neural text-to-speech (TTS) models. Autoregressive TTS models typically use an attention mechanism to learn these alignments on-line. However, these alignments tend to be brittle and often fail to generalize to long utterances and out-of-domain tex…

Flowtron: an Autoregressive Flow-based Generative Network for Text-to-Speech Synthesis

ICLR 2021poster

In this paper we propose Flowtron: an autoregressive flow-based generative network for text-to-speech synthesis with style transfer and speech variation. Flowtron borrows insights from Autoregressive Flows and revamps Tacotron 2 in order to provide high-quality and expressive mel-spectrogram synthes…

Graphical Contrastive Losses for Scene Graph Parsing

CVPR 2019poster

Most scene graph parsers use a two-stage pipeline to detect visual relationships: the first stage detects entities, and the second predicts the predicate for each entity pair using a softmax distribution. We find that such pipelines, trained with only a cross entropy loss over predicate classes, suf…

Improving Semantic Segmentation via Video Propagation and Label Relaxation

CVPR 2019oral

Semantic segmentation requires large amounts of pixel-wise annotations to learn accurate models. In this paper, we present a video prediction-based methodology to scale up training sets by synthesizing new training samples in order to improve the accuracy of semantic segmentation networks. We exploi…

Unsupervised Video Interpolation Using Cycle Consistency

ICCV 2019poster

Learning to synthesize high frame rate videos via interpolation requires large quantities of high frame rate training videos, which, however, are scarce, especially at high resolutions. Here, we propose unsupervised techniques to synthesize high frame rate videos directly from low frame rate videos…

Image Inpainting for Irregular Holes Using Partial Convolutions

ECCV 2018poster

Existing deep learning based image inpainting methods use a standard convolutional network over the corrupted image, using convolutional filter responses conditioned on both valid pixels as well as the substitute values in the masked holes (typically the mean value). This often leads to artifacts su…

SDC-Net: Video prediction using spatially-displaced convolution

ECCV 2018poster

We present an approach for high-resolution video frame prediction by conditioning on both past frames and past optical flows. Previous approaches rely on resampling past frames, guided by a learned future optical flow, or on direct generation of pixels. Resampling based on flow is insufficient becau…
