Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in research related to the detection of piano pedals from audio signals in the music information retrieval community. However, to our best knowledge, recent generative models for symbolic music…
In this paper we present mathematical and physical models to be used in the analysis of the problem of intonation of musical instruments such as guitars, mandolins and the like, i.e., we study how to improve the tuning on these instruments.…
The existing piano fingering labeling statistical models usually consider the constraints among the fingers and the correlation between fingering and notes, and rarely include the relationship among the notes directly. The limited learned…
As a standard keyboard is quite spacious many inventions try to use the space of keyboard to use for various activities. A modular keyboard is designed in such a way that the components of the keyboard can be attached and detached as per…
Predicting the difficulty of playing a musical score is essential for structuring and exploring score collections. Despite its importance for music education, the automatic difficulty classification of piano scores is not yet solved, mainly…
The end conditions of piano strings can be approximated by the input admittance at the bridge. Proper measurements of this value are therefore required. A method of validation of admittance measurements on simple structures is proposed in…
Modern keyboards allow a musician to play multiple instruments at the same time by assigning zones -- fixed pitch ranges of the keyboard -- to different instruments. In this paper, we aim to further extend this idea and examine the…
We present a statistical-modelling method for piano reduction, i.e. converting an ensemble score into piano scores, that can control performance difficulty. While previous studies have focused on describing the condition for playable piano…
Resonance is a topic included in most introductory physics courses. Any mechanical system experiences resonance if it is driven by a periodic force with a frequency that matches its natural frequency. There are plenty of simple…
We present a new system for simultaneous estimation of keys, chords, and bass notes from music audio. It makes use of a novel chromagram representation of audio that takes perception of loudness into account. Furthermore, it is fully based…
A new approach to composite superconformal strings is considered . This composite string model has two scales: first one (~1 Gev) is for edging surfaces and second one (Planck scale) is for ridge surfaces . Nonlinear realization of…
While neural network models are making significant progress in piano transcription, they are becoming more resource-consuming due to requiring larger model size and more computing power. In this paper, we attempt to apply more prior about…
Music performance synthesis aims to synthesize a musical score into a natural performance. In this paper, we borrow recent advances in text-to-speech synthesis and present the Deep Performer -- a novel system for score-to-audio music…
This paper introduces a novel method for emulating piano sounds. We propose to exploit the sines, transient, and noise decomposition to design a differentiable spectral modeling synthesizer replicating piano notes. Three sub-modules learn…
The human sense of hearing perceives a combination of sounds 'in tune' if the corresponding harmonic spectra are correlated, meaning that the neuronal excitation pattern in the inner ear exhibits some kind of order. Based on this…
The relationship between perceptual loudness and physical attributes of sound is an important subject in both computer music and psychoacoustics. Early studies of "equal-loudness contour" can trace back to the 1920s and the measured…
In the Pythagorean tuning system, the fifth is used to generate a scale of 12 notes per octave. In this paper, we use the octave to generate a scale of 19 notes per tritave; one can play this scale on a traditional piano. In this system,…
The violin is one of the most popular musical instruments. Various parameters of bowing motion, such as pressure, position, and speed, are crucial for producing a beautiful tone. However, mastering them is challenging and requires extensive…
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)…
The task of learning the piano has been a centuries-old challenge for novices, experts and technologists. Several innovations have been introduced to support proper posture, movement, and motivation, while sight-reading and improvisation…
