Instrumental playing techniques such as vibratos, glissandos, and trills often denote musical expressivity, both in classical and folk contexts. However, most existing approaches to music similarity retrieval fail to describe timbre beyond…

This paper addresses the problem of global tempo estimation in musical audio. Given that annotating tempo is time-consuming and requires certain musical expertise, few publicly available data sources exist to train machine learning models…

We propose a new method for solving imaging inverse problems using text-to-image latent diffusion models as general priors. Existing methods using latent diffusion models for inverse problems typically rely on simple null text prompts,…
