Deep neural networks improve music phrase segmentation.

problem Automated melodic phrase detection and segmentation in music.
method Adapted various neural network architectures to symbolic music representation, addressing sparse labeling problem.
result CNN-CRF architecture performs best, offering finer segmentation and faster training.

Modelling the real world complexity of music is a challenge for machine learning. We address the task of modeling melodic sequences from the same music genre. We perform a comparative analysis of two probabilistic models; a Dirichlet Variable Length Markov Model (Dirichlet-VMM) and a Time Convolutional Restricted Boltz…

result Precise content and style extraction and control without external adapters.

In this paper, we price American-style Parisian down-and-in call options under the Black-Scholes framework. Usually, pricing an American-style option is much more difficult than pricing its European-style counterpart because of the appearance of the optimal exercise boundary in the former. Fortunately, the optimal exer…

We examine the problem of learning a probabilistic model for melody directly from musical sequences belonging to the same genre. This is a challenging task as one needs to capture not only the rich temporal structure evident in music, but also the complex statistical dependencies among different music components. To ad…
