The goal of music highlight extraction is to get a short consecutive segment of a piece of music that provides an effective representation of the whole piece. In a previous work, we introduced an attention-based convolutional recurrent…
Heart murmurs are a common manifestation of cardiovascular diseases and can provide crucial clues to early cardiac abnormalities. While most current research methods primarily focus on the accuracy of models, they often overlook other…
Speaker extraction algorithm relies on the speech sample from the target speaker as the reference point to focus its attention. Such a reference speech is typically pre-recorded. On the other hand, the temporal synchronization between…
Symbolic music generation has attracted increasing attention, while most methods focus on generating short piece (mostly less than 8 bars, and up to 32 bars). Generating long music calls for effective expression of the coherent music…
Audio-visual target speech extraction, which aims to extract a certain speaker's speech from the noisy mixture by looking at lip movements, has made significant progress combining time-domain speech separation models and visual feature…
The syllable is a perceptually salient unit in speech. Since both the syllable and its acoustic correlate, i.e., the speech envelope, have a preferred range of rhythmicity between 4 and 8 Hz, it is hypothesized that theta-band neural…
The buildup and release of a sense of tension is one of the most essential aspects of the process of listening to music. A veridical computational model of perceived musical tension would be an important ingredient for many music…
Understanding the structural characteristics of harmony is essential for an effective use of music as a communication medium. Of the three expressive axes of music (melody, rhythm, harmony), harmony is the foundation on which the emotional…
Tonal structure is in part conveyed by statistical regularities between musical events, and research has shown that computational models reflect tonal structure in music by capturing these regularities in schematic constructs like pitch…
In the domain of music and sound processing, pitch extraction plays a pivotal role. Our research presents a specialized convolutional neural network designed for pitch extraction, particularly from the human singing voice in acapella…
Music, being a multifaceted stimulus evolving at multiple timescales, modulates brain function in a manifold way that encompasses not only the distinct stages of auditory perception but also higher cognitive processes like memory and…
We present a deep learning based methodology for extracting the singing voice signal from a musical mixture based on the underlying linguistic content. Our model follows an encoder decoder architecture and takes as input the magnitude…
Recognizing the feelings of human beings plays a critical role in our daily communication. Neuroscience has demonstrated that different emotion states present different degrees of activation in different brain regions, EEG frequency bands…
Ensemble modeling has been widely used to solve complex problems as it helps to improve overall performance and generalization. In this paper, we propose a novel TemporalAugmenter approach based on ensemble modeling for augmenting the…
This study explores the application of recurrent neural networks to recognize emotions conveyed in music, aiming to enhance music recommendation systems and support therapeutic interventions by tailoring music to fit listeners' emotional…
Expressive variations of tempo and dynamics are an important aspect of music performances, involving a variety of underlying factors. Previous work has showed a relation between such expressive variations (in particular expressive tempo)…
A two space dimensional active nonlinear nonlocal cochlear model is formulated in the time domain to capture nonlinear hearing effects such as compression, multi-tone suppression and difference tones. The micromechanics of the basilar…
Perceptually-inspired objective functions such as the perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ), signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR), and short-time objective intelligibility (STOI), have recently been used to optimize performance of…
Forecasting multivariate time series data, such as prediction of electricity consumption, solar power production, and polyphonic piano pieces, has numerous valuable applications. However, complex and non-linear interdependencies between…
This paper is devoted to improve automatic emotion recognition from speech by incorporating rhythm and temporal features. Research on automatic emotion recognition so far has mostly been based on applying features like MFCCs, pitch and…
