¿El Caballo Viejo? Latin Genre Recognition with Deep Learning and Spectral Periodicity
نویسندگان
چکیده
The “winning” system in the 2013 MIREX Latin Genre Classification Task was a deep neural network trained with simple features. An explanation for its winning performance has yet to be found. In previous work, we built similar systems using the BALLROOM music dataset, and found their performances to be greatly affected by slightly changing the tempo of the music of a test recording. In the MIREX task, however, systems are trained and tested using the Latin Music Dataset (LMD), which is 4.5 times larger than BALLROOM, and which does not seem to show as strong a relationship between tempo and label as BALLROOM. In this paper, we reproduce the “winning” deep learning system using LMD, and measure the effects of time dilation on its performance. We find that tempo changes of at most ±6% greatly diminish and improve its performance. Interpreted with the low-level nature of the input features, this supports the conclusion that the system is exploiting some low-level absolute time characteristics to reproduce ground truth in LMD.

Commercial quadcopters with many private, commercial, and public sector applications are a rapidly advancing technology. Currently, there is no guarantee to facilitate the safe operation of these devices in the community. Three different automatic commercial quadcopters identification methods are presented in this paper. Among these three techniques, two are based on deep neural networks in whi...
متن کاملLearning Temporal Features Using a Deep Neural Network and its Application to Music Genre Classification
In this paper, we describe a framework for temporal feature learning from audio with a deep neural network, and apply it to music genre classification. To this end, we revisit the conventional spectral feature learning framework, and reformulate it in the cepstral modulation spectrum domain, which has been successfully used in many speech and music-related applications for temporal feature extr...

متن کاملTowards Characterisation of Music via Rhythmic Patterns
A central problem in music information retrieval is finding suitable representations which enable efficient and accurate computation of musical similarity and identity. Low level audio features are ideal for calculating identity, but are of limited use for similarity measures, as many aspects of music can only be captured by considering high level features. We present a new method of characteri...
