Musical Metamerism with Time--Frequency Scattering

Vincent Lostanlen, Han Han

The concept of metamerism originates from colorimetry, where it describes a sensation of visual similarity between two colored lights despite significant differences in spectral co…

S-KEY: Self-supervised Learning of Major and Minor Keys from Audio

Yuexuan Kong, Gabriel Meseguer-Brocal, Vincent Lostanlen +2

STONE, the current method in self-supervised learning for tonality estimation in music signals, cannot distinguish relative keys, such as C major versus A minor. In this article, w…

STONE: Self-supervised Tonality Estimator

Yuexuan Kong, Vincent Lostanlen, Gabriel Meseguer-Brocal +3

Although deep neural networks can estimate the key of a musical piece, their supervision incurs a massive annotation effort. Against this shortcoming, we present STONE, the first s…
