Machine sound classification has been one of the fundamental tasks of music technology. A major branch of sound classification is the classification of music genres. However, though covering most genres of music, existing music genre…
Music Genre Classification is one of the most popular topics in the fields of Music Information Retrieval (MIR) and digital signal processing. Deep Learning has emerged as the top performer for classifying music genres among various…
Along with the evolution of music technology, a large number of styles, or "subgenres," of Electronic Dance Music(EDM) have emerged in recent years. While the classification task of distinguishing between EDM and non-EDM has been often…
Music genre classification has become increasingly critical with the advent of various streaming applications. Nowadays, we find it impossible to imagine using the artist's name and song title to search for music in a sophisticated music…
Electronic Dance Music (EDM) classification typically relies on industry-defined taxonomies, with current supervised approaches naturally assuming the validity of prescribed subgenre labels. However, whether these commercial distinctions…
Music genre recognition based on visual representation has been successfully explored over the last years. Recently, there has been increasing interest in attempting convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to achieve the task. However, most of…
In the recording studio, producers of Electronic Dance Music (EDM) spend more time creating, shaping, mixing and mastering sounds, than with compositional aspects or arrangement. They tune the sound by close listening and by leveraging…
Music similarity search is useful for a variety of creative tasks such as replacing one music recording with another recording with a similar "feel", a common task in video editing. For this task, it is typically necessary to define a…
Machine-generated music (MGM) has emerged as a powerful tool with applications in music therapy, personalised editing, and creative inspiration for the music community. However, its unregulated use threatens the entertainment, education,…
Music genres allow to categorize musical items that share common characteristics. Although these categories are not mutually exclusive, most related research is traditionally focused on classifying tracks into a single class. Furthermore,…
Music datasets play a crucial role in advancing research in machine learning for music. However, existing music datasets suffer from limited size, accessibility, and lack of audio resources. To address these shortcomings, we present…
Music genre classification is one of the sub-disciplines of music information retrieval (MIR) with growing popularity among researchers, mainly due to the already open challenges. Although research has been prolific in terms of number of…
Recent advances in audio-text large language models (LLMs) have opened new possibilities for music understanding and generation. However, existing benchmarks are limited in scope, often relying on simplified tasks or multi-choice…
Music emotion recognition (MER) aims to identify the emotions conveyed in a given musical piece. However, currently, in the field of MER, the available public datasets have limited sample sizes. Recently, segment-based methods for…
Deep learning models for music have advanced drastically in recent years, but how good are machine learning models at capturing emotion, and what challenges are researchers facing? In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of the…
Music Genres, as a popular meta-data of music, are very useful to organize, explore or search music datasets. Soft music genres are weighted multiple-genre annotations to songs. In this initial work, we propose horizontally stacked bar…
Musical features and descriptors could be coarsely divided into three levels of complexity. The bottom level contains the basic building blocks of music, e.g., chords, beats and timbre. The middle level contains concepts that emerge from…
Music structure segmentation is a key task in audio analysis, but existing models perform poorly on Electronic Dance Music (EDM). This problem exists because most approaches rely on lyrical or harmonic similarity, which works well for pop…
Music recommendation systems have emerged as a vital component to enhance user experience and satisfaction for the music streaming services, which dominates music consumption. The key challenge in improving these recommender systems lies in…
Dance and music are closely related forms of expression, with mutual retrieval between dance videos and music being a fundamental task in various fields like education, art, and sports. However, existing methods often suffer from unnatural…
