In this work, we investigate the personalization of text-to-music diffusion models in a few-shot setting. Motivated by recent advances in the computer vision domain, we are the first to explore the combination of pre-trained text-to-audio…

Track detectors in high energy physics experiments require an accurate determination of a large number of alignment parameters. A general method has been developed, which allows the determination of up to several thousand alignment…

This paper introduces a new large-scale music dataset, MusicNet, to serve as a source of supervision and evaluation of machine learning methods for music research. MusicNet consists of hundreds of freely-licensed classical music recordings…

Spurred by the potential of deep learning, computational music generation has gained renewed academic interest. A crucial issue in music generation is that of user control, especially in scenarios where the music generation process is…

When editing a video, a piece of attractive background music is indispensable. However, video background music generation tasks face several challenges, for example, the lack of suitable training datasets, and the difficulties in flexibly…

Music accounts for a significant chunk of interest among various online activities. This is reflected by wide array of alternatives offered in music related web/mobile apps, information portals, featuring millions of artists, songs and…

A match cut is a transition between a pair of shots that uses similar framing, composition, or action to fluidly bring the viewer from one scene to the next. Match cuts are frequently used in film, television, and advertising. However,…

The identification of structural differences between a music performance and the score is a challenging yet integral step of audio-to-score alignment, an important subtask of music information retrieval. We present a novel method to detect…

Melody reduction, as an abstract representation of musical compositions, serves not only as a tool for music analysis but also as an intermediate representation for structured music generation. Prior computational theories, such as the…

A "match cut" is a common video editing technique where a pair of shots that have a similar composition transition fluidly from one to another. Although match cuts are often visual, certain match cuts involve the fluid transition of audio,…

Quantification of stylistic differences between musical artists is of academic interest to the music community, and is also useful for other applications such as music information retrieval and recommendation systems. Information about…

Automatically generating or captioning music playlist titles given a set of tracks is of significant interest in music streaming services as customized playlists are widely used in personalized music recommendation, and well-composed text…

Lyrics alignment in long music recordings can be memory exhaustive when performed in a single pass. In this study, we present a novel method that performs audio-to-lyrics alignment with a low memory consumption footprint regardless of the…

Shared practices to assess the diversity of retrieval system results are still debated in the Information Retrieval community, partly because of the challenges of determining what diversity means in specific scenarios, and of understanding…

We propose an end-to-end music mixing style transfer system that converts the mixing style of an input multitrack to that of a reference song. This is achieved with an encoder pre-trained with a contrastive objective to extract only audio…

With increasing amounts of music being digitally transferred from production to distribution, automatic means of determining media quality are needed. Protection mechanisms in digital audio processing tools have not eliminated the need of…

Several methods exist for a computer to generate music based on data including Markov chains, recurrent neural networks, recombinancy, and grammars. We explore the use of unit selection and concatenation as a means of generating music using…

Chord progressions encapsulate important information about music, pertaining to its structure and conveyed emotions. They serve as the backbone of musical composition, and in many cases, they are the sole information required for a musician…

Sentiment analysis is a continuously explored area of text processing that deals with the computational analysis of opinions, sentiments, and subjectivity of text. However, this idea is not limited to text and speech, in fact, it could be…

This review examines the roles of adaptation and synchronization in music performance, drawing on concepts from complex systems theory to understand the dynamic interactions between musicians, music, and listeners. Adaptation is explored…
