NAVA (Native Audio-Visual Alignment) is a research framework from Baidu's ERNIE team for joint audio-video generation. It uses an Align-then-Fuse MMDiT architecture: Hierarchical Alignment Layers first establish audio-video correspondence in a dedicated alignment space, then Unified Fusion Layers perform context-conditioned denoising of audio and video in a single trajectory. The project page credits Wan2.2-TI2V-5B, LTX-Video, ReDimNet, Qwen3 and Ovi as building blocks.\n\nThe model adds Timbre-in-Context Conditioning, which binds a reference voice's timbre to the corresponding speech spans, enabling controllable speech generation. It supports text-to-audio-video (T2AV) and text-plus-image-to-audio-video (TI2AV) generation. On Verse-Bench the authors report the best audio-visual synchronization and video quality among compared open models (Ovi 1.1, MOVA, daVinci, LTX 2.3) with 6.3B parameters, and a human preference study shows wins on audio-visual alignment. These are the authors' own results.\n\nA YouTube creator summary describes it as producing 720p video with synchronized speech, with a roughly 25GB checkpoint and a 7GB FP8 version, and as open-source. The fetched project page did not link code, weights or a paper, so release details, license and download locations could not be verified here.
