Multi-View Based Audio Visual Target Speaker Extraction

Abstract

Audio-Visual Target Speaker Extraction (AVTSE) aims to separate a target speaker's voice from a mixed audio signal using the corresponding visual cues. While most existing AVTSE methods rely exclusively on frontal-view videos, this limitation restricts their robustness in real-world scenarios where non-frontal views are prevalent. Such visual perspectives often contain complementary articulatory information that could enhance speech extraction. In this work, we propose Multi-View Tensor Fusion (MVTF), a novel framework that transforms multi-view learning into single-view performance gains. During the training stage, we leverage synchronized multi-perspective lip videos to learn cross-view correlations through MVTF, where pairwise outer products explicitly model multiplicative interactions between different views of input lip embeddings. At the inference stage, the system supports both single-view and multi-view inputs. Experimental results show that in the single-view inputs, our framework leverages multi-view knowledge to achieve significant performance gains, while in the multi-view mode, it further improves overall performance and enhances the robustness.
