Parameter Optimization in Automatic Transcription of Music
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on former work on automatic transcription of musical time series into sheet music (Ligges et al. (2002), Weihs and Ligges (2003, 2005)) in this paper parameters of the transcription algorithm are optimized for various real singers. Moreover, the parameters of various artificial singer models derived from the models of Rossignol et al. (1999) and Davy and Godsill (2002) are estimated. In both cases, optimization is carried out by the Nelder-Mead (1965) search algorithm. In the modelling case a hierarchical Bayes extension is estimated by WinBUGS (Spiegelhalter et al. (2004)) as well. In all cases, optimal parameters are compared to heuristic estimates from our former standard method.

Calibration of a two-state pitch-wise HMM method for note segmentation in Automatic Music Transcription systems
Many methods for automatic music transcription involves a multi-pitch estimation method that estimates an activity score for each pitch. A second processing step, called note segmentation, has to be performed for each pitch in order to identify the time intervals when the notes are played. In this study, a pitch-wise two-state on/off firstorder Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is developed for note se...

متن کاملPhoneme-Level Text to Audio Synchronization on Speech Signals with Background Music
We address the task of synchronizing a given phoneme transcription with the corresponding speech signal, when the latter is linearly mixed with background music. To that end, we propose a new method based on Non-negative Matrix Factorization in the time-frequency domain, which models the speech as a source-filter factorization that includes a synchronization parameter matrix. Phoneme models, wh...
متن کاملEvolutionary Optimization of Music Performance Annotation
In this paper we present an enhancement of edit distance based music performance annotation. The annotation captures musical expressivity not only in terms of timing deviations but also represents e.g. spontaneous note ornamentation. To reduce the number of errors in automatic performance annotation, some optimization is essential. We have taken an evolutionary approach to optimize the paramete...
متن کاملAutomatic Transcription of Music Audio Through Continuous Parameter Tracking
We present a method for transcribing arbitrary pitched music into a piano-roll-like representation that also tracks the amplitudes of the notes over time. We develop a probabilistic model that gives the likelihood of a frame of audio data given a vector of amplitudes for the possible notes. Using an approximation of the log likelihood function, we develop an objective function that is quadratic...
