dl4mir: A Tutorial on Deep Learning for MIR

by Keunwoo Choi (first.last@qmul.ac.uk)

This is a repo for my tutorial paper; A Tutorial on Deep Learning for Music Information Retrieval.

Tutorials

1. Example 1: Pitch detector with a dense layer
2. Example 2: Chord recogniser with a convnet
3. Example 3: Setup config.json
4. Example 4: download and preprocess
5. Real examples with real datasets! * Example 5-1: Time-varying classification example using Jamendo dataset * Example 5-2: Time-invariant classification example using FMA dataset

Prerequisites

$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ git clone https://github.com/keunwoochoi/kapre.git
$ cd kapre
$ python setup.py install

to install

• Librosa, Keras, Numpy, Matplotlib, Future
• kapre

Notes

• Datasets is removed from Kapre and the codes are directly imported into here.

Datasets

Dataset management

• GTZan: (30s, 10 genres, 1,000 mp3)
• MagnaTagATune: (29s, 188 tags, 25,880 mp3) for tagging and triplet similarity
• MusicNet: (full length 330 classicals music, note-wise annotations)
• FMA: small/medium/large/full collections, up to 100+K songs from free music archieve, for genre classification. With genre hierarchy, pre-computed features, splits, etc.
• Jamendo: 61/16/24 songs for vocal activity detection
