vivo and Xidian Propose StereoBind for Spatially Consistent Stereo Audio in Video Generation

Hanmo Chen · hf · 2026-10-12

vivo BlueImage Lab and Xidian University propose StereoBind, tackling the overlooked stereo-audio problem in joint video-audio generation via 'Dynamic Spatial Correspondence' — perceived sound location evolving consistently with its visual source's motion.

The framework uses motion tracks through three mechanisms: Visual Motion Binding (source-aware audiovisual correspondence), a Spatial Track Encoder (absolute source positions), and Residual Track RoPE (relative motion).

They also release StereoWorld-29K, a large-scale stereo audio-video dataset with paired motion tracks, plus the StereoWorldBench benchmark. Experiments show substantially improved spatial alignment while preserving overall audiovisual quality.
