We investigate algorithmic collective action in transformer-based recommender systems. Our use case is a music streaming platform where a collective of fans aims to promote the visibility of an underrepresented artist by strategically…
Is it possible use algorithms to find trends in the history of popular music? And is it possible to predict the characteristics of future music genres? In order to answer these questions, we produced a hand-crafted dataset with the intent…
The successful reconstruction of perceptual experiences from human brain activity has provided insights into the neural representations of sensory experiences. However, reconstructing arbitrary sounds has been avoided due to the complexity…
Accurately interpreting cardiac auscultation signals plays a crucial role in diagnosing and managing cardiovascular diseases. However, the paucity of labelled data inhibits classification models' training. Researchers have turned to…
High-quality training datasets are essential for the performance of neural networks. However, the audio domain still lacks a large-scale, strongly-labeled, and single-source sound event dataset. The FSD50K dataset, despite being relatively…
The objective of this paper is to perform audio-visual sound source separation, i.e.~to separate component audios from a mixture based on the videos of sound sources. Moreover, we aim to pinpoint the source location in the input video…
Source separation is the process of isolating individual sounds in an auditory mixture of multiple sounds [1], and has a variety of applications ranging from speech enhancement and lyric transcription [2] to digital audio production for…
The evaluation of audio fingerprinting at a realistic scale is limited by the scarcity of large public music databases. We present an audio-free approach that synthesises latent fingerprints which approximate the distribution of real…
Music signals are difficult to interpret from their low-level features, perhaps even more than images: e.g. highlighting part of a spectrogram or an image is often insufficient to convey high-level ideas that are genuinely relevant to…
As music has become more available especially on music streaming platforms, people have started to have distinct preferences to fit to their varying listening situations, also known as context. Hence, there has been a growing interest in…
With the rise of generative AI technology, anyone can now easily create and deploy AI-generated music, which has heightened the need for technical solutions to address copyright and ownership issues. While existing works mainly focused on…
Many audio processing tasks require perceptual assessment. The ``gold standard`` of obtaining human judgments is time-consuming, expensive, and cannot be used as an optimization criterion. On the other hand, automated metrics are efficient…
Log analysis in Web search showed that user sessions often contain several different topics. This means sessions need to be segmented into parts which handle the same topic in order to give appropriate user support based on the topic, and…
Automatic Music Generation (AMG) has become an interesting research topic for many scientists in artificial intelligence, who are also interested in the music industry. One of the main challenges in AMG is that there is no clear objective…
With the advancements in AI speech synthesis, it is easier than ever before to generate realistic audio in a target voice. One only needs a few seconds of reference audio from the target, quite literally putting words in the target person's…
Creation of images using generative adversarial networks has been widely adapted into multi-modal regime with the advent of multi-modal representation models pre-trained on large corpus. Various modalities sharing a common representation…
Recognizing Musical Entities is important for Music Information Retrieval (MIR) since it can improve the performance of several tasks such as music recommendation, genre classification or artist similarity. However, most entity recognition…
Recent advances in image, video, text and audio generative techniques, and their use by the general public, are leading to new forms of content generation. Usually, each modality was approached separately, which poses limitations. The…
Creating music is iterative, requiring varied methods at each stage. However, existing AI music systems fall short in orchestrating multiple subsystems for diverse needs. To address this gap, we introduce Loop Copilot, a novel system that…
This paper describes a preliminary approach to algorithmically reproduce the archetypical structure adopted by humans to classify sounds. In particular, we propose an approach to predict the human perceived chaos/order level in a sound and…
