A Dataset and Benchmark for Optical Music Recognition of String Quartet Scores

Optical music recognition (OMR) transcribes music scores into digital formats. While the field has advanced significantly on monophonic and piano-form scores, multi-part score transcription remains underexplored, largely due to the absence of a suitable dataset.

Pianist Transformer: Towards Expressive Piano Performance Rendering via Scalable Self-Supervised Pre-Training

arXiv:2512. 02652v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing methods for expressive music performance rendering, a conditional generation task that aims to generate a human-like performance from a symbolic score, rely on supervised learning over small labeled datasets, which limits scaling of both data volume and model size, despite the availability of vast unlabeled music, as in vision and language.

Fretiq: Browser-Native Electric Guitar String Classification via Engineered Spectral Features and Held-Out Free-Play Evaluation

arXiv:2607. 18303v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Identifying which string produces a given pitch in monophonic electric guitar audio is a fundamental classification challenge: a single pitch can often be produced on multiple strings at different fret positions, with timbral differences that prior listening studies confirm are largely imperceptible to untrained humans.
