The Sound Model Learned Where the Noise Was Going
Panoramic video and spatial audio support questions about a source's identity, direction, distance and motion.
Summary
Panoramic video and spatial audio support questions about a source's identity, direction, distance and motion.
ST-OmniQA pairs 40,000 panoramic videos with synchronized first-order Ambisonics audio and supplies 400,000 questions across recognition, direction, distance and trajectory tasks. The accompanying ST-Omni-R1 system integrates spatial-audio representations with panoramic vision. The authors report 77.83 percent average semantic accuracy versus 37.28 percent for their strongest evaluated baseline. Those numbers describe this new benchmark, not general real-world listening or surveillance capability.
