Speech enhancement is a task to improve the intelligibility and perceptual quality of degraded speech signal. Recently, neural networks based methods have been applied to speech enhancement. However, many neural network based methods…
The problem of pitch tracking has been extensively studied in the speech research community. The goal of this paper is to investigate how these techniques should be adapted to singing voice analysis, and to provide a comparative evaluation…
As digital music production has become mainstream, the selection of appropriate virtual instruments plays a crucial role in determining the quality of music. To search the musical instrument samples or virtual instruments that make one's…
Expert musicians can mould a musical piece to convey specific emotions that they intend to communicate. In this paper, we place a mid-level features based music emotion model in this performer-to-listener communication scenario, and…
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…
Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) has rapidly progressed in recent years. Existing works tend to design a single tracking algorithm to perform both detection and association. Though ensemble learning has been exploited in many tasks, i.e,…
We consider audio decoding as an inverse problem and solve it through diffusion posterior sampling. Explicit conditioning functions are developed for input signal measurements provided by an example of a transform domain perceptual audio…
We present PECMAE, an interpretable model for music audio classification based on prototype learning. Our model is based on a previous method, APNet, which jointly learns an autoencoder and a prototypical network. Instead, we propose to…
A mixed sample data augmentation strategy is proposed to enhance the performance of models on audio scene classification, sound event classification, and speech enhancement tasks. While there have been several augmentation methods shown to…
In the context of contemporary monophonic music, expression can be seen as the difference between a musical performance and its symbolic representation, i.e. a musical score. In this paper, we show how Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) models can be…
Emojis are being frequently used in todays digital world to express from simple to complex thoughts more than ever before. Hence, they are also being used in sentiment analysis and targeted marketing campaigns. In this work, we performed…
Singing voice correction (SVC) is an appealing application for amateur singers. Commercial products automate SVC by snapping pitch contours to equal-tempered scales, which could lead to deadpan modifications. Together with the neglect of…
The complex nature of musical emotion introduces inherent bias in both recognition and generation, particularly when relying on a single audio encoder, emotion classifier, or evaluation metric. In this work, we conduct a study on Music…
The framework of document spanners abstracts the task of information extraction from text as a function that maps every document (a string) into a relation over the document's spans (intervals identified by their start and end indices). For…
Deep neural network based speaker embeddings, such as x-vectors, have been shown to perform well in text-independent speaker recognition/verification tasks. In this paper, we use simple classifiers to investigate the contents encoded by…
Sentiment analysis, also called opinion mining, is the field of study that analyzes people's opinions,sentiments, attitudes and emotions. Songs are important to sentiment analysis since the songs and mood are mutually dependent on each…
Analyzing sequential data is crucial in many domains, particularly due to the abundance of data collected from the Internet of Things paradigm. Time series classification, the task of categorizing sequential data, has gained prominence,…
Understanding evolution of vocal communication in social animals is an important research problem. In that context, beyond humans, there is an interest in analyzing vocalizations of other social animals such as, meerkats, marmosets, apes.…
Multi-modal learning in the audio-language domain has seen significant advancements in recent years. However, audio-language learning faces challenges due to limited and lower-quality data compared to image-language tasks. Existing…
Sampling, the practice of reusing recorded music or sounds from another source in a new work, is common in popular music genres like hip-hop and rap. Numerous services have emerged that allow users to identify connections between samples…
