UOT-IR: Structured Routing of High-Polyphony Symbolic Music into Fixed-Budget Representations

High-polyphony symbolic music is increasingly used in generation, analysis, and arrangement, yet many downstream tasks require bounded representations with fixed tracks or slots. Converting richly orchestrated scores into compact forms is therefore necessary, but existing approaches relying on heuristic simplification or generic representation-space reduction often fail to preserve structural roles, orchestration compatibility, and playability under strict budgets. To address the issue, this study reformulates the compression problem as a fixed-budget structured routing problem and proposes Unbalanced Optimal Transport for Information Routing (UOT-IR), a training-free framework based on constrained unbalanced optimal transport. UOT-IR combines an orchestration prior, adaptive marginal relaxation, temporal decoding, and playability-aware projection to produce compact and musically coherent bounded representations. This work further studies two practical settings under the same slot budget: template standardization, which maps each input to a predefined bounded template, and adaptive preservation, which retains representative content without assuming an external template. Experiments on the SymphonyNet corpus show that UOT-IR delivers strong overall performance across both settings, including the best Note-F1 in adaptive preservation (0.9120), together with the lowest structural cost (14.7165) and bad structural confusion rate (0.3406) in template standardization. This work establishes a principled paradigm for fixed-budget symbolic music compression, offering a practical path toward compact, structured, and musically coherent symbolic representations.

SymphonyGen: 3D Hierarchical Orchestral Generation with Controllable Harmony Skeleton

Generating symphonic music requires simultaneously managing high-level structural form and dense, multi-track orchestration, yet existing symbolic models often struggle with a "complexity-control imbalance" between scalability and steerability. We present SymphonyGen, a 3D hierarchical framework for contemporary orchestral generation, whose cascading decoders decompose the bar, track, and event axes, keeping decoding memory far below flat token streams and enabling conditioning at every structural level. A beat-quantized multi-pitch harmony skeleton, which may be user-written, analyzed, or model-generated, provides "short-score" conditioning, enabling outline control while producing orchestral textures. The model is refined with reinforcement learning against a cross-modal acoustic reward from CLaMP 3 audio embeddings, and a dissonance-averse sampling algorithm suppresses unintended tonal clashes during inference. Objective evaluations show that both post-training mechanisms reduce dissonance while maintaining independent melodic metrics, and in subjective tests SymphonyGen is rated above baseline systems in quality and preference, significantly so among general listeners.

Frequency-Adaptive Discrete Cosine-ViT-ResNet Architecture for Sparse-Data Vision

A major challenge in rare animal image classification is the scarcity of data, as many species usually have only a small number of labeled samples. To address this challenge, we designed a hybrid deep-learning framework comprising a novel adaptive DCT preprocessing module, ViT-B16 and ResNet50 backbones, and a Bayesian linear classification head. To our knowledge, we are the first to introduce an adaptive frequency-domain selection mechanism that learns optimal low-, mid-, and high-frequency boundaries suited to the subsequent backbones. Our network first captures image frequency-domain cues via this adaptive DCT partitioning. The adaptively filtered frequency features are then fed into ViT-B16 to model global contextual relationships, while ResNet50 concurrently extracts local, multi-scale spatial representations from the original image. A cross-level fusion strategy seamlessly integrates these frequency- and spatial-domain embeddings, and the fused features are passed through a Bayesian linear classifier to output the final category predictions. On our self-built 50-class wildlife dataset, this approach outperforms conventional CNN and fixed-band DCT pipelines, achieving state-of-the-art accuracy under extreme sample scarcity.
