Spatial-Aware Conditioned Fusion for Audio-Visual Navigation
arXiv:2604.02390v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Audio-visual navigation tasks require agents to locate and navigate toward continuously vocalizing targets using only visual observations and acoustic cues. However, existing methods mainly rely on simple feature concatenation or late fusion, and lack an explicit discrete representation of the target’s relative position, which limits learning efficiency and generalization. We propose Spatial-Aware Conditioned Fusion (SACF). SACF first discretizes the target’s relative direction and distance from audio-visual cues, predicts their distributions, and encodes them […]
