Extending Deep Rhythm for Tempo and Genre Estimation Using Complex Convolutions, Multitask Learning and Multi-input Network

Abstract

Tempo and genre are two inter-leaved aspects of music, genres are often associated to rhythm patterns which are played in specific tempo ranges.

In this paper, we focus on the Deep Rhythm system based on a harmonic representation of rhythm used as an input to a convolutional neural network.

To consider the relationships between frequency bands, we process complex-valued inputs through complex-convolutions.

We also study the joint estimation of tempo/genre using a multitask learning approach. 

Finally, we study the addition of a second input convolutional branch to the system applied to a mel-spectrogram input dedicated to the timbre.

This multi-input approach allows to improve the performances for tempo and genre estimation.
