MIT researchers have developed a computer system that independently adds realistic sounds to silent videos. Although the technology is nascent, it’s a step toward automating sound effects for movies.

I am an instructor of retirement home residents and need help solving a problem with annoying sounds on their computers. They get an audio “good morning” and “good afternoon” all day when they are ...

Despite advances in computer-generated image technology, most sound effects for films and virtual reality experiences are still recorded manually. Doug James, associate professor of computer science ...

How much do I like a cappella? I like it so much I own Pitch Perfect 3 (THREE!) on Blu-ray. So yeah, I obviously I really enjoy people making instrument noises with their mouths. But typically that ...

Computer-generated imagery (CGI) is so advanced today that it can be difficult to distinguish from reality. But the creation of the sounds that accompany the images are still largely the work of ...

Neural networks are already beating us at games, organizing our smartphone photos, and answering our emails. Eventually, they could be filling jobs in Hollywood. Over at MIT's Computer Science and ...
