Outline Polyphonic vs Monophonic The Human Method Issues Methods Evaluation of Transcription Methods 2/14
Polyphonic vs Monotonic Transcription Audio signal with musical content symbolic format Monophonic: a single instrument playing individual notes Polyphonic transcription: A single instrument playing several concurrent notes An instrument playing individual notes with other instruments An instrument playing several concurrent notes with other instruments Several instruments playing concurrent notes 3/14
The Human Method 1. Initial sketch Sections and key phrases 2. Chord scheme or bass line 3. Melody and counter–melodies Instrument playback Musical knowledge Beat tracking Style detection Instrument identification Hainsworth and Macleod (2004) 4/14
Issues with Polyphonic Transcription Restrictions: instrument, genre, maximum polyphony Transcription: pitch + timing + attack + release Overlapping harmonics difficult frequency–based analysis Solution: better understanding and reproduction of the human method? 5/14
A Few Definitions Musical note: “a discrete note pitch with a specific onset and an offset time” Melodies: “consecutive note sequences with organized and recognizable shape” Chords: “combinations of simultaneously sounding notes” Ryynänen and Klapuri (2005) 6/14
Methods Bottom–up methods: no high–level analysis Blackboard systems: develop hypotheses at various levels Model–based algorithms: high– and low–level analysis + parameter extraction Common method: 1. Preprocessing (e. g. , lowpass filtering) 2. Event extraction 3. Classification: Support Vector Machines, Hidden Markov Models, Neural Networks, Gaussian Mixture Models, etc. 4. Postprocessing (e. g. , remove outliers) Other methods: probabilistic note-based, matrix factorization 7/14
Evaluation of Transcription Methods NC: number of correct events detected ND: total number of events detected N: actual number of events Precision: P = NC / ND Recall: R = NC / N F–Measure: F = 2 RP/(R+P) = 2 NC / (N + ND) 8/14
Evaluation of Transcription Methods Gillet and Richard (2005) 2 drummers Different musical sequences Celtic & Groove 5/4: Many ghost notes Table 4 of Gillet and Richard (2005) 9/14
Evaluation of Transcription Methods Ryynänen and Klapuri (2005): R ≈ P ≈ 40% Multiple instruments Multiple concurrent notes Hainsworth and Macleod (2005): P = 78. 7% Bass guitar Polyphonic context Gillet and Richard (2005): R ≈ P ≈ 84% Drums Ryynänen and Klapuri (2005): 10/14
Conclusion Analogy with speech recognition The problem has not yet been solved Still easier for humans to do – although complex Combine with source separation? 11/14
