Abstract: System, method and/or computer readable medium for audio visual sound source Separation that applies cross-modal meta consistency learning. Inputs include an audio spectrogram that represents first sounds second sounds, a first video of a first sound producing object, and a second video of a second sound producing object. Audio features and audio tokens are generated by applying audio encoders to the audio spectrogram. Visual tokens are generated by applying a visual encoder to the first video and the second video. Respective audio-visual features are obtained based on combining the audio token with the respective visual tokens. Based on the respective audio-visual features, first and second separated audio masks are generated by applying a decoder.
