Extraction of Drum Tracks from Polyphonic Music Using Independent Subspace Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The analysis and separation of audio signals into their original components is an important prerequisite to automatic transcription of music, extraction of metadata from audio data, and speaker separation in video conferencing. In this paper, a method for the separation of drum tracks from polyphonic music is proposed. It consists of an Independent Component Analysis and a subsequent partitioning of the derived components into subspaces containing the percussive and harmonic sustained instruments. With the proposed method, different samples of popular music have been analyzed. The results show sufficient separation of drum tracks and non-drum tracks for subsequent metadata extraction. Informal listening tests prove a moderate audio quality of the resulting audio signals.

Further Steps towards Drum Transcription of Polyphonic Music
This publication presents a new method for the detection and classification of un-pitched percussive instruments in real world musical signals. The derived information is an important pre-requisite for the creation of a musical score, i.e. automatic transcription, and for the automatic extraction of semantic meaningful meta-data, e.g. tempo and musical meter. The proposed method applies Indepen...
متن کاملDrum Transcription Based on Independent Subspace Analysis
In automatic music transcription, metadata extraction from recorded audio data or speaker separation in video conferencing, it is a significant prerequisite task to analyze and separate the audio signal into their original source components. In this report, I study and analyze a set of methods of the extraction of percussive instruments metadata from polyphonic music. It mainly focuses on the s...
متن کاملAutomatic Extraction of Drum Tracks from Polyphonic Music Signals
We propose an approach for extracting automatically time indexes of occurrences of percussive sounds in an audio signal taken from the Popular music repertoire. The scheme is able to detect percussive sounds unknown a priori in a selective fashion. It is based on an analysis by synthesis technique, whereby the sound searched for is gradually synthesized from the signal itself. The possibility t...
متن کاملBeat Histogram Features from NMF-Based Novelty Functions for Music Classification
In this paper we present novel rhythm features derived from drum tracks extracted from polyphonic music and evaluate them in a genre classification task. Musical excerpts are analyzed using an optimized, partially fixed Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) method and beat histogram features are calculated on basis of the resulting activation functions for each one out of three drum tracks ex...
متن کاملDrum Track Transcription of Polyphonic Music Using Noise Subspace Projection
This paper presents a novel drum transcription system for polyphonic music. The use of a band-wise harmonic/noise decomposition allows the suppression of the deterministic part of the signal, which is mainly contributed by nonrhythmic instruments. The transcription is then performed on the residual noise signal, which contains most of the rhythmic information. This signal is segmented, and the ...
