Roman","Aiden Chang","Gerardo Meza","Iran R. Roman"],"abstract":"We present SELDVisualSynth, a tool for generating synthetic videos for audio-visual sound event localization and detection (SELD). Our approach incorporates real-world background images to improve realism in synthetic audio-visual SELD data while also ensuring audio-visual spatial alignment. The tool creates 360 synthetic videos where objects move matching synthetic SELD audio data and its annotations. Experimental results demonstrate that a model trained with this data attains performance gains across multiple metrics, achieving superior localization recall (56.4 LR) and competitive localization error (21.9deg LE). We open-source our data generation tool for maximal use by members of the SELD research community.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.02988v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2504.02988v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"generating-diverse-audio-visual-360","repo_url":"https://github.com/adriansroman/seldvisualsynth","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
