Musical Machine Learning
Overview
This project created a foundation for future work by WPI students in music information retrieval and machine learning. A Python system was first constructed to extract variable-length features from audio files. The problem of determining song structure was then approached with both supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms, resulting in a novel method for automated structure analysis. Finally, the groundwork was laid for the use of deep neural networks for musical composition.
TODO List
- Large additions
- Cluster an entire song in 1-s segments, then use a Gaussian KDE to smooth out classification. This can then be used to actually mark "segments" of a song
- Train a massive Deep Neural Net to try to automatically distinguish between parts
- Composition
- Create a LSTM recurrent neural net to learn from MIDI input
- Combine with Verse/Chorus algorithm/work to give songs more structure
- Create website where people can upload a MIDI file, and then listen to RNN improvise over it
- Small improvements to Verse/Chorus system:
- Use SVM with linear kernel (instead of RBF) as a better approximation of "true" clustering
- Find additional features other than spectral centroid and zero-crossing rate
- IPython notebook demo (https://ipython.org/notebook.html)
- Play with how the features are generated and averaged
- Include outlier detection in the data preprocessing stage
- Optimize the different classifiers
- Optimize song loading times (store in database? alternative form?)
- Add option of multiple sections (bridge?)
