The framework of visually guided sound source separation generally consists of three parts: visual feature extraction, multimodal feature fusion, and sound signal processing. An ongoing trend in this field has been to tailor involved visual feature extractor for informative visual guidance and separately devise module for feature fusion, while utilizing U-Net by default for sound analysis. However, such a divide-and-conquer paradigm is parameter-inefficient and, meanwhile, may obtain suboptimal performance as jointly optimizing and harmonizing various model components is challengeable. By contrast, this article presents a novel approach, dubbed audio-visual predictive coding (AVPC), to tackle this task in a parameter-efficient and more effective manner. The network of AVPC features a simple ResNet-based video analysis network for deriving semantic visual features, and a predictive coding (PC)-based sound separation network that can extract audio features, fuse multimodal information, and predict sound separation masks in the same architecture. By iteratively minimizing the prediction error between features, AVPC integrates audio and visual information recursively, leading to progressively improved performance. In addition, we develop a valid self-supervised learning strategy for AVPC via copredicting two audio-visual representations of the same sound source. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that AVPC outperforms several baselines in separating musical instrument sounds, while reducing the model size significantly.
