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.

arXiv:2607. 23395v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Music Source Separation (MSS), the task of recovering individual sound components (stems) from a polyphonic mixture, is central to applications ranging from karaoke and remixing to audio restoration and content production.

arXiv:2608. 03920v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans recognize a musical passage even when it is shifted in time or transposed in pitch, indicating a notion of equivariance in the representation space.
