Beyond Piano: Cross-Instrument MIDI Velocity Estimation via Differentiable SoundFont Proxies
Zhanhong He, Hanyu Meng, David Defeng Huang +1
Many music datasets contain MIDI notes but lack reliable velocities, defaulting to a constant value. This absence is especially problematic outside the piano domain, as velocity is…
Score-Informed Transformer for Refining MIDI Velocity in Automatic Music Transcription
Zhanhong He, Roberto Togneri, David Huang
MIDI velocity is crucial for capturing expressive dynamics in human performances. In practical scenarios, a music score with inaccurate velocities may be available alongside the pe…
Joint Estimation of Piano Dynamics and Metrical Structure with a Multi-task Multi-Scale Network
Zhanhong He, Hanyu Meng, David Huang +1
Estimating piano dynamic from audio recordings is a fundamental challenge in computational music analysis. In this paper, we propose an efficient multi-task network that jointly pr…
Filling MIDI Velocity using U-Net Image Colorizer
Zhanhong He, David Cooper, Defeng Huang +1
Modern music producers commonly use MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) to store their musical compositions. However, MIDI files created with digital software may lack the…
Music Tempo Estimation on Solo Instrumental Performance
Zhanhong He, Roberto Togneri, Xiangyu Zhang
Recently, automatic music transcription has made it possible to convert musical audio into accurate MIDI. However, the resulting MIDI lacks music notations such as tempo, which hin…
Pseudo Strong Labels from Frame-Level Predictions for Weakly Supervised Sound Event Detection
Yuliang Zhang, Defeng, Huang +1
Weakly Supervised Sound Event Detection (WSSED), which relies on audio tags without precise onset and offset times, has become prevalent due to the scarcity of strongly labeled dat…
