MIDI-RAE-JEPA: Hierarchical Representation Learning and Generation for Symbolic Music

arXiv:2607. 14537v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rich internal representations of musical structure are essential for music understanding tasks such as machine-assisted music co-writing, yet self-supervised approaches for symbolic music representation remain underexplored, particularly those that encode the hierarchical multiscale nature of musical structures.

From Prediction to Collaboration: Interactive Symbolic Music Analysis

arXiv:2607. 13587v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic symbolic music analysis has made substantial progress, yet existing systems are typically designed for a single mode of use, such as full-score prediction, and therefore do not match the broader range of operations that arise in analysis workflows, including partial completion, local correction, and iterative refinement.
