In the pursuit of develo** expressive music performance models using artificial
intelligence, this paper introduces DExter, a new approach leveraging diffusion probabilistic …

This paper presents a model of musical togetherness (MT), defined as the sense of musical
connection that arises during real-time interaction and results in feelings of social …

Symbolic Music Alignment is the process of matching performed MIDI notes to
corresponding score notes. In this paper, we introduce a reinforcement learning (RL)-based …

Note alignment refers to the task of matching individual notes of two versions of the same
symbolically encoded piece. Methods addressing this task commonly rely on sequence …

Playing music as part of a group is challenging, but also rewarding. What factors come
together to maximize rewarding group playing experiences? How do feelings of enjoyment …

In the field of Music Information Retrieval (MIR), the decomposition of a music recording into
its constituent sound sources, referred to as source separation, is relevant to a broad …

Real-time computer-based accompaniment for human musical performances entails three
critical tasks: identifying what the performer is playing, locating their position within the …

This paper presents an immersive Virtual Reality application designed for exposure therapy
on children suffering from social anxiety. Two different interfaces for communication between …

Music information retrieval (MIR) has been an active research field for decades, and, as a
result, many algorithms have been developed on the subject (Cambouropoulos, 1996; …

Automatic accompaniment systems synchronizing software playback with human musicians
require a natural, easy-to-manipulate music synchronization model. However, existing …
