VidAudio-Bench: Benchmarking V2A and VT2A Generation across Five Audio Categories

1. Overview

VidAudio-Bench is a comprehensive multi-task benchmark designed for evaluating both Video-to-Audio (V2A) and Video-Text-to-Audio (VT2A) generation systems.

The benchmark comprises 1,634 video-text pairs spanning five audio categories:

  • SFX: 400 samples
  • Music: Instrument: 191 samples ; BGM: 231 samples
  • Speech: 412 samples
  • Singing: 400 samples

VidAudio-Bench aims to facilitate the evaluation of:

  • Audio-video synchronization
  • Semantic consistency between video and generated audio
  • Text-guided controllable audio generation
  • Fine-grained audio category understanding

2. Dataset Structure

The dataset is organized as follows:

VidAudio-Bench/
├── original_videos/    # original video files (.mp4)
├── silent_videos/      # muted video files (.mp4)
├── annotations/        # metadata files (.jsonl)

3. Data Format

Each sample in the annotation file follows the format below:

{
  "video_name": "6TiZ1coebWw_76s",
  "category": "SFX",
  "V2A_positive_prompt": "Realistic foley sound synchronized with the video.",
  "negative_prompt": "music, background music, speech, singing",
  "VT2A_positive_prompt": "Realistic foley sound of a fan rotating."
}
