STHG: Spatial-Temporal Heterogeneous Graph Learning for Advanced Audio-Visual Diarization
Journal: arXiv (Cornell University)
Year: 2023

This report introduces our novel method named STHG for the Audio-Visual Diarization task of the Ego4D Challenge 2023. Our key innovation is that we model all the speakers in a video using a single, unified heterogeneous graph learning framework. Unlike previous approaches that require a separate component solely for the camera wearer, STHG can jointly detect the speech activities of all people including the camera wearer. Our final method obtains 61.1% DER on the test set of Ego4D, which signifi
