Data-Driven Analysis of Text-Conditioned AI-Generated Music: A Case Study with Suno and Udio
Luca Casini, Laura Cros Vila, David Dalmazzo +2
Online AI platforms for creating music from text prompts (AI music), such as Suno and Udio, are now being used by hundreds of thousands of users. Some AI music is appearing in adve…
SMART: Tuning a symbolic music generation system with an audio domain aesthetic reward
Nicolas Jonason, Luca Casini, Bob L. T. Sturm
Recent work has proposed training machine learning models to predict aesthetic ratings for music audio. Our work explores whether such models can be used to finetune a symbolic mus…
Steer-by-prior Editing of Symbolic Music Loops
Nicolas Jonason, Luca Casini, Bob L. T. Sturm
With the goal of building a system capable of controllable symbolic music loop generation and editing, this paper explores a generalisation of Masked Language Modelling we call Sup…
SYMPLEX: Controllable Symbolic Music Generation using Simplex Diffusion with Vocabulary Priors
Nicolas Jonason, Luca Casini, Bob L. T. Sturm
We present a new approach for fast and controllable generation of symbolic music based on the simplex diffusion, which is essentially a diffusion process operating on probabilities…
Retrieval Augmented Generation of Symbolic Music with LLMs
Nicolas Jonason, Luca Casini, Carl Thomé +1
We explore the use of large language models (LLMs) for music generation using a retrieval system to select relevant examples. We find promising initial results for music generation…
