Automatic lyrics to polyphonic audio alignment is a challenging task not only because the vocals are corrupted by background music, but also there is a lack of annotated polyphonic corpus for effective acoustic modeling. In this work, we…
We propose a novel approach for the automatic equalization of individual musical instrument tracks. Our method begins by identifying the instrument present within a source recording in order to choose its corresponding ideal spectrum as a…
String vibration represents an active field of research in acoustics. Small-amplitude vibration is often assumed, leading to simplified physical models that can be simulated efficiently. However, the inclusion of nonlinear phenomena due to…
The role of integrable systems in string theory is discussed. We remind old examples of the correspondence between stringy partition functions or effective actions and integrable equations, based on effective application of the matrix model…
Automatic Music Transcription (AMT) is one of the oldest and most well-studied problems in the field of music information retrieval. Within this challenging research field, onset detection and instrument recognition take important places in…
Many musical instruments, as for example woodwind instruments, flute or violins, are self-sustained oscillating systems, i.e. musician enacts as a continuous energy source to drive an oscillation in the passive resonator, the body of the…
The full characterization of a stringed musical instrument requires measuring the motion of the strings in at least two dimensions. Traditionally this has been done using electromagnetic means or by optical transmission. However in many…
A central goal in automatic music transcription is to detect individual note events in music recordings. An important variant is instrument-dependent music transcription where methods can use calibration data for the instruments in use.…
The expressive variability in producing a musical note conveys information essential to the modeling of orchestration and style. As such, it plays a crucial role in computer-assisted browsing of massive digital music corpora. Yet, although…
The solution to fine tuning is one of the principal motivations for supersymmetry. However constraints on the parameter space of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) suggest it may also require fine tuning (although to a much…
Indentation test is used with growing popularity for the characterization of various materials on different scales. Developed methods are combining the test with computer simulation and inverse analyses to assess material parameters…
This is the second of three papers describing an `absolute' calibration of the GONG magnetograph using an end-to-end simulation of its measurement process. In the first paper, we described the GONG instrument and our `end-to-end' simulation…
Theoretical and experimental results for in-plane vibrations of a uniform rectangular plate with free boundary conditions are obtained. The experimental setup uses electromagnetic-acoustic transducers and a vector network analyzer. The…
In this paper, we explore the tokenized representation of musical scores using the Transformer model to automatically generate musical scores. Thus far, sequence models have yielded fruitful results with note-level (MIDI-equivalent)…
Multi-pitch estimation is a decades-long research problem involving the detection of pitch activity associated with concurrent musical events within multi-instrument mixtures. Supervised learning techniques have demonstrated solid…
Music tone quality evaluation is generally performed by experts. It could be subjective and short of consistency and fairness as well as time-consuming. In this paper we present a new method for identifying the clarinet reed quality by…
Whereas chord transcription has received considerable attention during the past couple of decades, far less work has been devoted to transcribing and encoding the rhythmic patterns that occur in a song. The topic is especially relevant for…
We introduce the text-to-instrument task, which aims at generating sample-based musical instruments based on textual prompts. Accordingly, we propose InstrumentGen, a model that extends a text-prompted generative audio framework to…
The lowest notes produced by string instruments are typically limited by the fundamental vibration of the strings. However, precise control of bow pressure can lead to the production of even lower notes. Despite significant interest in this…
Music recordings often suffer from audio quality issues such as excessive reverberation, distortion, clipping, tonal imbalances, and a narrowed stereo image, especially when created in non-professional settings without specialized equipment…
