Tracing Inputs, Verifying Outputs: Validating Attribution in Music Generation

How can we verify whose music contributed to an AI-generated output? This paper demonstrates how input-based attribution can provide verifiable evidence of which audio sources were used in a generation and whether they shaped the output. To do so, we condition the generation solely on audio without any text input, then trace the inputs behind each output, and establish their musical effect. In prompt adherence tests and controlled input swaps, the stems generated by our generator, MixAudio, follow the prompt audio in timbre and the context audio in harmony. Yet these outputs may still reproduce training data not supplied as inputs. We therefore audit memorization with our musical version identification model, musicDNA, and find few reproductions outside the input records. On human-judged cases within the flagged pool, it achieves higher precision and recall than the other tested memorization detectors. The two evaluations suggest that input records and output analysis provide complementary evidence for attribution, on which rights-holder reporting and compensation can draw as the AI music economy takes shape.

Pseudo-Label Transfer from Frame-Level to Note-Level in a Teacher-Student Framework for Singing Transcription from Polyphonic Music

Lack of large-scale note-level labeled data is the major obstacle to singing transcription from polyphonic music. We address the issue by using pseudo labels from vocal pitch estimation models given unlabeled data. The proposed method first converts the frame-level pseudo labels to note-level through pitch and rhythm quantization steps. Then, it further improves the label quality through self-training in a teacher-student framework. To validate the method, we conduct various experiment settings by investigating two vocal pitch estimation models as pseudo-label generators, two setups of teacher-student frameworks, and the number of iterations in self-training. The results show that the proposed method can effectively leverage large-scale unlabeled audio data and self-training with the noisy student model helps to improve performance. Finally, we show that the model trained with only unlabeled data has comparable performance to previous works and the model trained with additional labeled data achieves higher accuracy than the model trained with only labeled data.

Sample-level Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Music Auto-tagging Using Raw Waveforms

Recently, the end-to-end approach that learns hierarchical representations from raw data using deep convolutional neural networks has been successfully explored in the image, text and speech domains. This approach was applied to musical signals as well but has been not fully explored yet. To this end, we propose sample-level deep convolutional neural networks which learn representations from very small grains of waveforms (e.g. 2 or 3 samples) beyond typical frame-level input representations. Our experiments show how deep architectures with sample-level filters improve the accuracy in music auto-tagging and they provide results comparable to previous state-of-the-art performances for the Magnatagatune dataset and Million Song Dataset. In addition, we visualize filters learned in a sample-level DCNN in each layer to identify hierarchically learned features and show that they are sensitive to log-scaled frequency along layer, such as mel-frequency spectrogram that is widely used in music classification systems.
