SENSESHIFT: Continuous Sentiment-Controlled Text Generation via Encoder-based Mask Infilling
Shahed Masoudian, Markus Frohmann, Emmanouil Karystinaios +2
Recent controllable text generation (CTG) for sentiment control has largely focused on decoder-based large language models, making causal attention the dominant paradigm. While eff…
Neural Morphing: Sequence-Optimized Token-Level Morphing in Neural Audio Codecs
Emmanouil Karystinaios
Neural audio codecs were originally developed for high-fidelity compression; however, their latent token representations and expressive decoders also constitute a powerful substrat…
From Prediction to Collaboration: Interactive Symbolic Music Analysis
Emmanouil Karystinaios, Johannes Hentschel, Markus Neuwirth +1
Automatic symbolic music analysis has made substantial progress, yet existing systems are typically designed for a single mode of use, such as full-score prediction, and therefore…
Low-Latency Neural Models for Real-Time Music Enhancement
Emmanouil Karystinaios, Jonathan Greif, David Nadrchal +2
Music recordings and live streams are often affected by noise, reverberation, spectral imbalances, or artifacts that degrade listening quality. While speech enhancement has matured…
Dilemmadata: On the Interoperability of Heterogeneous Roman Numeral Datasets
Johannes Hentschel, Emmanouil Karystinaios, Gerhard Widmer +1
In recent years, there has been growing effort to annotate and collect large-scale corpora of Roman numeral analyses in support of data-driven studies in tonal harmony. We introduc…
Multi-Stage Music Source Restoration with BandSplit-RoFormer Separation and HiFi++ GAN
Tobias Morocutti, Emmanouil Karystinaios, Jonathan Greif +1
Music Source Restoration (MSR) targets recovery of original, unprocessed instrument stems from fully mixed and mastered audio, where production effects and distribution artifacts v…
How Far Can Pretrained LLMs Go in Symbolic Music? Controlled Comparisons of Supervised and Preference-based Adaptation
Deepak Kumar, Emmanouil Karystinaios, Gerhard Widmer +1
Music often shares notable parallels with language, motivating the use of pretrained large language models (LLMs) for symbolic music understanding and generation. Despite growing i…
MUSE-Explainer: Counterfactual Explanations for Symbolic Music Graph Classification Models
Baptiste Hilaire, Emmanouil Karystinaios, Gerhard Widmer
Interpretability is essential for deploying deep learning models in symbolic music analysis, yet most research emphasizes model performance over explanation. To address this, we in…
EngravingGNN: A Hybrid Graph Neural Network for End-to-End Piano Score Engraving
Emmanouil Karystinaios, Francesco Foscarin, Gerhard Widmer
This paper focuses on automatic music engraving, i.e., the creation of a humanly-readable musical score from musical content. This step is fundamental for all applications that inc…
WeaveMuse: An Open Agentic System for Multimodal Music Understanding and Generation
Emmanouil Karystinaios
Agentic AI has been standardized in industry as a practical paradigm for coordinating specialized models and tools to solve complex multimodal tasks. In this work, we present Weave…
AnalysisGNN: Unified Music Analysis with Graph Neural Networks
Emmanouil Karystinaios, Johannes Hentschel, Markus Neuwirth +1
Recent years have seen a boom in computational approaches to music analysis, yet each one is typically tailored to a specific analytical domain. In this work, we introduce Analysis…
Language Models for Music Medicine Generation
Emmanouil Nikolakakis, Joann Ching, Emmanouil Karystinaios +3
Music therapy has been shown in recent years to provide multiple health benefits related to emotional wellness. In turn, maintaining a healthy emotional state has proven to be effe…
GraphMuse: A Library for Symbolic Music Graph Processing
Emmanouil Karystinaios, Gerhard Widmer
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have recently gained traction in symbolic music tasks, yet a lack of a unified framework impedes progress. Addressing this gap, we present GraphMuse, a…
Cluster and Separate: a GNN Approach to Voice and Staff Prediction for Score Engraving
Francesco Foscarin, Emmanouil Karystinaios, Eita Nakamura +1
This paper approaches the problem of separating the notes from a quantized symbolic music piece (e.g., a MIDI file) into multiple voices and staves. This is a fundamental part of t…
