contents Video-to-audio (V2A) generation aims to produce corresponding audio given silent video inputs. This task is particularly challenging due to the cross-modality and sequential nature of the audio-visual features involved. Recent works have made significant progress in bridging the domain gap between video and audio, generating audio that is semantically aligned with the video content. However, a critical limitation of these approaches is their inability to effectively recognize and handle multiple scenes within a video, often leading to suboptimal audio generation in such cases. In this paper, we first reimplement a state-of-the-art V2A model with a slightly modified light-weight architecture, achieving results that outperform the baseline. We then propose an improved V2A model that incorporates a scene detector to address the challenge of switching between multiple visual scenes. Results on VGGSound show that our model can recognize and handle multiple scenes within a video and achieve superior performance against the baseline for both fidelity and relevance.
