BREAK-THE-BEAT! CONTROLLABLE MIDI-TO-DRUM AUDIO SYNTHESIS

ICASSP 2026poster

Current methods for creating drum loop audio in digital music production, such as using one-shot samples or resampling, often demand non-trivial efforts of creators. While recent generative models achieve high fidelity and adhere to text, they lack the specific control needed for such a task. Existi…

Concept-TRAK: Understanding how diffusion models learn concepts through concept attribution

ICLR 2026poster

While diffusion models excel at image generation, their growing adoption raises critical concerns about copyright issues and model transparency. Existing attribution methods identify training examples influencing an entire image, but fall short in isolating contributions to specific elements, such a…

SteerMusic: Enhanced Musical Consistency for Zero-shot Text-Guided and Personalized Music Editing

AAAI 2026technical

Music editing is an important step in music production, which has broad applications, including game development and film production. Most existing zero-shot text-guided editing methods rely on pretrained diffusion models by involving forward-backward diffusion processes. However, these methods ofte

Latent Diffusion Bridges for Unsupervised Musical Audio Timbre Transfer

ICASSP 2025accepted

Music timbre transfer is a challenging task that involves modifying the timbral characteristics of an audio signal while preserving its melodic structure. In this paper, we propose a novel method based on dual diffusion bridges, trained using the CocoChorales Dataset, which consists of unpaired mono…

Variable Bitrate Residual Vector Quantization for Audio Coding

ICASSP 2025accepted

Recent state-of-the-art neural audio compression models have progressively adopted residual vector quantization (RVQ). Despite this success, these models employ a fixed number of codebooks per frame, which can be suboptimal in terms of rate-distortion tradeoff, particularly in scenarios with simple…

Timbre-Trap: A Low-Resource Framework for Instrument-Agnostic Music Transcription

ICASSP 2024accepted

In recent years, research on music transcription has focused mainly on architecture design and instrument-specific data acquisition. With the lack of availability of diverse datasets, progress is often limited to solo-instrument tasks such as piano transcription. Several works have explored multi-in…

Diffroll: Diffusion-Based Generative Music Transcription with Unsupervised Pretraining Capability

ICASSP 2023accepted

In this paper we propose a novel generative approach, DiffRoll, to tackle automatic music transcription (AMT). Instead of treating AMT as a discriminative task in which the model is trained to convert spectrograms into piano rolls, we think of it as a conditional generative task where we train our m…
