Melody-Lyrics Matching with Contrastive Alignment Loss
Changhong Wang, Michel Olvera, Gaël Richard
The connection between music and lyrics is far beyond semantic bonds. Conceptual pairs in the two modalities such as rhythm and rhyme, note duration and syllabic stress, and struct…
Of All StrIPEs: Investigating Structure-informed Positional Encoding for Efficient Music Generation
Manvi Agarwal, Changhong Wang, Gael Richard
While music remains a challenging domain for generative models like Transformers, a two-pronged approach has recently proved successful: inserting musically-relevant structural inf…
F-StrIPE: Fast Structure-Informed Positional Encoding for Symbolic Music Generation
Manvi Agarwal, Changhong Wang, Gael Richard
While music remains a challenging domain for generative models like Transformers, recent progress has been made by exploiting suitable musically-informed priors. One technique to l…
Investigating the Sensitivity of Pre-trained Audio Embeddings to Common Effects
Victor Deng, Changhong Wang, Gael Richard +1
In recent years, foundation models have significantly advanced data-driven systems across various domains. Yet, their underlying properties, especially when functioning as feature…
