The expressive nature of the voice provides a powerful medium for communicating sonic ideas, motivating recent research on methods for query by vocalisation. Meanwhile, deep learning methods have demonstrated state-of-the-art results for…

The imitation of percussive instruments via the human voice is a natural way for us to communicate rhythmic ideas and, for this reason, it attracts the interest of music makers. Specifically, the automatic mapping of these vocal imitations…

Vocal Percussion Transcription (VPT) is concerned with the automatic detection and classification of vocal percussion sound events, allowing music creators and producers to sketch drum lines on the fly. Classifier algorithms in VPT systems…

Imitating musical instruments with the human voice is an efficient way of communicating ideas between music producers, from sketching melody lines to clarifying desired sonorities. For this reason, there is an increasing interest in…

Query-by-Vocal Imitation (QBV) is about searching audio files within databases using vocal imitations created by the user's voice. Since most humans can effectively communicate sound concepts through voice, QBV offers the more intuitive and…

This paper defines the novel task of drum-to-vocal percussion (VP) sound conversion. VP imitates percussion instruments through human vocalization and is frequently employed in contemporary a cappella music. It exhibits acoustic properties…

We present an efficient and realistic geometric acoustic simulation approach for generating and augmenting training data in speech-related machine learning tasks. Our physically-based acoustic simulation method is capable of modeling…

Searching sounds by text labels is often difficult, as text descriptions cannot describe the audio content in detail. Query by vocal imitation bridges such gap and provides a novel way to sound search. Several algorithms for sound search by…

We present a deep neural network-based methodology for synthesising percussive sounds with control over high-level timbral characteristics of the sounds. This approach allows for intuitive control of a synthesizer, enabling the user to…

Disentangling and recovering physical attributes, such as shape and material, from a few waveform examples is a challenging inverse problem in audio signal processing, with numerous applications in musical acoustics as well as structural…

Inspired by the success of deploying deep learning in the fields of Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing, this learning paradigm has also found its way into the field of Music Information Retrieval. In order to benefit from deep…

Sound modelling is the process of developing algorithms that generate sound under parametric control. There are a few distinct approaches that have been developed historically including modelling the physics of sound production and…

Visual scenes are composed of visual concepts and have the property of combinatorial explosion. An important reason for humans to efficiently learn from diverse visual scenes is the ability of compositional perception, and it is desirable…

Separating the individual elements in a musical mixture is an essential process for music analysis and practice. While this is generally addressed using neural networks optimized to mask or transform the time-frequency representation of a…

Recent advances in deep learning based large vocabulary con- tinuous speech recognition (LVCSR) invoke growing demands in large scale speech transcription. The inference process of a speech recognizer is to find a sequence of labels whose…

The rise of deep learning algorithms has led many researchers to withdraw from using classic signal processing methods for sound generation. Deep learning models have achieved expressive voice synthesis, realistic sound textures, and…

Most recent advances in audio dereverberation focus almost exclusively on speech, leaving percussive and drum signals largely unexplored despite their importance in music production. Percussive dereverberation poses distinct challenges due…

While both the data volume and heterogeneity of the digital music content is huge, it has become increasingly important and convenient to build a recommendation or search system to facilitate surfacing these content to the user or consumer…

Extracting individual elements from music mixtures is a valuable tool for music production and practice. While neural networks optimized to mask or transform mixture spectrograms into the individual source(s) have been the leading approach,…

Machine hearing or listening represents an emerging area. Conventional approaches rely on the design of handcrafted features specialized to a specific audio task and that can hardly generalized to other audio fields. For example,…
