The world of music technology is buzzing with the introduction of Duo-Tok, a novel dual-codebook tokenizer designed to tackle the persistent challenge of balancing reconstruction quality and language-model (LM) learnability in lyrics-to-song systems.
Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have revolutionized how we handle signals like images, audio, and 3D scenes. These frameworks, including MLPs with Fourier features, SIREN, and multiresolution hash grids, have been incredibly powerful. However,
In the ever-evolving landscape of audio technology, researchers are constantly pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. A recent study by Jorge Ortigoso-Narro, Jose A. Belloch, Maximo Morales-Cespedes, and Maximo Cobos has shed new light on the pot
Creating immersive, dynamic soundscapes has always been a fascinating challenge in the world of computer music and algorithmic sound design. The latest research from Ellie L. Zhang, Duoduo Liao, and Callie C. Liao tackles this head-on, focusing on th
In the world of AI-generated music, we’re seeing some impressive strides forward. The latest research from Maral Ebrahimzadeh, Gilberto Bernardes, and Sebastian Stober is a prime example. They’ve tackled a tricky challenge: giving AI composers explic
Imagine a world where artificial intelligence doesn’t just mimic the brain but actually aligns with it, creating audio representations that are eerily similar to how our own brains process sound. This isn’t a distant dream but a reality, according to
Imagine a classroom where students don’t just learn about artificial intelligence in music but actively challenge and redefine its boundaries. This is the essence of the course “AI in Music and Sound: Modalities, Tools and Creative Applications,” par
Imagine a world where you can describe a melody, a mood, or a memory in plain language and have an AI generate the corresponding music. This isn’t a distant dream; it’s the reality of text-to-audio AI, and it’s reshaping how we create, interpret, and
Imagine capturing sound with pinpoint accuracy, even when using a compact microphone array. This isn’t a futuristic dream but a reality, thanks to a groundbreaking approach called Neural Directional Filtering (NDF). Researchers Weilong Huang, Srikant
Imagine creating a realistic, animated talking portrait of someone using just a few seconds of video instead of several minutes. That’s the promise of a new approach developed by researchers at the University of Hong Kong. Their work challenges the c
